As a result of a grant from the Fair Food Network , the DUFB program matches SNAP/Bridge Card dollars spent at farmers markets . Customers will receive a dollar for dollar match ( up to $20 ) that can be spent on fresh fruits and vegetables grown in Michigan . For example , if a customer spends $20 on their SNAP/Bridge Card , they would receive an extra $20 to spend ( limited to $20 per market Sunday ) .
