“EBT/SNAP CHAMPIONS! Let’s Unite!” wrote Sara George, Wabasha Farmers Market Manager, in 2016. The letter invited those interested to attend a meeting at Wabasha County Public Health to work on increasing EBT usage at the Farmers Market. Today this group continues to meet and work toward increasing access to healthy food across Wabasha County. 

“WFAN is important to us because it provides a space to network together, share resources, build stronger connections and support our local food system with the goal of ending food insecurity in Wabasha County. We aim to give a voice to those who have experienced food challenges, making sure potential solutions meet real needs. By focusing on measurable impact and community resilience, we feel WFAN’s efforts are moving the dial closer to being both sustainable and transformative.”
