Greetings community, We can’t believe tomorrow is really the last market of the season! With food access being even more of a challenge during the federal government shut down, we are grateful to be able to provide affordable produce to community members. The Maryland Market Money Bridge Program is providing $20 per household if their SNAP card is declined at the market. Loyola University is offering an additional $10, which means $30 per household that can be spent on SNAP-eligible items at the market.  We will also continue to stock our community fridge and food pantry, which is available for anyone to give what they can and take what they need 24/7. For more resources to on food access in the city, see below. Check out our list of vendors for tomorrow here —>  Sincerely, Ruth Tyson Govans Market Manager Weather Forecast: 11/5/25 Weather Outlook: Warm for November!  Tip of the Week: Don’t forget your reusable shopping bag! Food Access in Baltimore  These are exceptionally challenging times for many of our neighbors. While the list of worries continues to grow, we hope this list makes finding food a bit easier. Please share with anyone who may be in need. These are also available on our social media pages.  Recipe of the Week: Homemade Caramel Apples Looking for healthy meal ideas? Each week, we share a simple, delicious recipe using fresh fruits and veggies from the market—making it easy to eat well with what’s in season! It’s definitely cozy season. It’s chilli (lol) enough for sweaters, warm bevvies, and of course, soup!
