Healthy Hampshire’s Sarah Bankert was interviewed by WRSI’s Monte Belmonte and Phil Korman for the Local Hero Spotlight on February 29th. Bankert shared details about Healthy Hampshire’s work with the SNAP & Save program and the Tuesday Market – bringing additional shopping power to each dollar spent, and delivering more shoppers to the market for CISA’s Local Food for All campaign.

Bankert has also worked others in the community to expand the SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) & Save Program to additional sites within Northampton and Amherst, in order to extend the purchasing power to others, and benefit additional farmers in the area.
