I'm not sure anything need be lost in an electronic transaction
instead of a cash or check transaction. I believe its the generosity
of service and the attention that i can muster that brings the real
value to the interaction. There are WIC cards for some who need assistance that require an electronic transfer. We are in a neighborhood where there is need of good fresh food. I think we will attain a greater degree of that caring culture aspect by not having to say no because we have reached our financial limits, Marty On 12/14/10 7:00 AM, Todd Lister wrote: We take EBT and debit/cc at our main FM tent. We issue wooden coins with our logo and merchants exchange them for payment at the end of each market. We were fortunate to get a matching grant fro Wholesome Wave and this year, our first year with this system we have generated close toover $30,000 in sales that we would have missed otherwise. EBT can only be spent on food so the crafters/artists have benefited from the debit/cc part only. We have about twenty farmers in our mix who have shared well over $20,000 in sales from EBT. We "ain't goin back to livin that old life no more". |
