Are you looking to give back and get outdoors this winter? Volunteer with Alchemist CDC's CalFresh at Farmers Markets program!
Your volunteer time directly creates equitable access to fresh, healthy, local food for every Sacramento resident!
CalFresh at Farmers' Markets facilitates the use of CalFresh/EBT and Pandemic EBT/P-EBT cards at Sacramento County farmers' markets. As a volunteer, you will help debit benefits from a customer's card and help receive redeemed vouchers from farmers.
