Farmers Market - Our organization provides a low-cost space for local farmers, particularly beginning and young farmers, and local food producers with a place to sell directly to consumers at a seasonal weekly market. The market is community focused and aimed at fostering connection between farmer/food producers and consumers. To foster these relationships, in addition to the direct to consumer aspect, we host small community events, community meals, educational courses, and children's activities. The market also allows our farmers to participate in both state and federal programs, such as SNAP, SNAP Match, and LFPA, which they would otherwise have difficulty participating in. It is difficult to measure the exact number of persons benefitted different community members and vendors come each week. Population of the surrounding communities that have access to this market is around 20,000. 50721 50344 Local Foods Purchasing Assistance Program (LFPA) - This federally funded program allows the market to purchase fresh, unprocessed produce, meat, seafood, and eggs at full market value from vendors and donate that food directly to local anti-hunger agencies. This program greatly reduces food waste, feeds our community, and provides security to our farmers. The number of persons benefitting from this program is around 3,000, according to anti-hunger agency data and our vendor data. 15052 17407 SNAP Match - Using state funds, as a market, we are able to match SNAP recipient dollars by up to $40 for each recipient at each market. This program allows us to positively impact local food access for all and also has an extremely positive economic impact on our participating local farmers and food producers. Between SNAP customers served and farmers/food producers participating via our market, we estimate this program impacted around 200 individuals. 5671 5513 73264 Brandi Jo Nyberg Executive Director 20.00 36827 Zoe Fuller Board President 1.00 0 Leisa Carrick Board Vice President 0.50 0 Kerry Nelson Board Secretary 2.00 0 Dulce Ben-East Board Treasurer 0.50 0 false false false false false false false false false AK Brandi Jo Nyberg 1405 N Kuhn Dr Palmer AK 99645 9079823928 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE 0 NONE 0 true X 0 84126 78012 162138 10205 14080 24285 0 0 0 0 0 0 94331 92092 186423 0 0 0 186423 17 24 41 0 0 0 0 17 24 41 0 0 0 0 0 94348 92116 186464 X 0.99980 0.99980 0.00020 0.00020 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Part I, Line 16 Market supplies/equipment - $1301; SNAP & LFPA reimbursement programs - $18,729; Office supplies and expenses - $769; Advertising and Marketing - $697; Insurance policies - $1,484; Merchant service fees - $163; Licenses and fees - $28; Travel, conferences, and meeting expenses - $6407; Depreciation of assets (trailer) - $667 Part II, Line 24 Accounts Receivable - $1.00; Paypal clearing account - $285.52; Due from staff - $29.90; prepaid expenses - $186.84; QB Tax holding account - $490.97; Undeposited funds - $610; Fixed assets, minus depreciation - $3333.30 Part II, Line 26 Payroll liabilities, including federal taxes and AK unemployment taxes - $521.11
