"A record number of Kansans are receiving food assistance, and there is an increasing number of farmers' markets.
So some people think it's only natural to increase access to those farmers' markets to those who receive assistance and use the electronic benefits transfer card, or EBT for short.
'People have the opportunity to explore local foods and get excited about trying different things,' said Mercedes Taylor-Puckett, coordinator of the farmers' market project for the Kansas Rural Center.

Allowing Kansas farmers markets to accept EBT cards will benefit Kansas. First, the people who use them will have the opportunity to buy fresh grown produce from Kansas. Second, the people who sell produce at Kansas markets will have a bigger pool of people to market their produce. Its a Win-Win for Kansas!
