Shop with SNAP!

Market Umbrella implements fresh food incentive programs such as Market Match, which doubles SNAP dollars spent at market for the purchase of fresh fruits and vegetables. Starting January 1st, 2023, market match will be unlimited, allowing us to match each EBT dollar being swiped for on-site at the orange Welcome Tent.

Between June and the end of November, certified market vendors accept Farmers Market Nutrition Program vouchers for both seniors and WIC participants. Market Umbrella is able to double FMNP benefits with tokens on-site at the Welcome Tent.

Location on the Lafitte Greenway

In the fall of 2020, the Thursday market moved to its new home in New Orleans' vibrant Mid-City neighborhood! Located at the Lafitte Greenway and Bayou St. John, it operates year-round.

Check out the responses to Lafitte Greenway's public survey regarding use of the new Lafitte Greenway Plaza - we are thrilled about the overwhelming support for a farmers market in the space!
