Market2Go is Open!


THE MARKET IS OPEN!

Many of you have expressed appreciation for the Market2Go as a safe place to buy good food and support our local farmers. Some of you have asked how you can contribute to the market, wanting to offer a “tip” for services or a significant donation to help sustain this community-based effort. In response to your requests, we have created a “Market Contributions” category on the Market2Go website that includes a range of market donations, from $5 to $100. To make a contribution, just add one of the donation “items” to your shopping basket, and that amount will be included in your total at checkout. Please know that we appreciate your weekly orders as a way of supporting the market and our vendors. There is no obligation or expectation for further contributions, but we are grateful for your help.

ORDER PROCESS.
Place your orders by midnight Tuesday for pickup or delivery on Thursday afternoon.

Choose your pickup location from the drop-down menu before you check out. Options are

  • Statesboro: Thursday afternoon at SCVB
  • Sylvania: Thursday afternoon at Victory Garden General Store
  • To Your Home Delivery (must add delivery to cart and prepay)

Pay online to make our process more efficient and to better meet health guidelines. Register your debit or credit card at Your Account and click “Pay Now” when you check out. Your card will only be charged after you have received your order, including any adjustments for missed items or other credits.
You may now use your EBT/SNAP card to purchase authorized EBT items through the Market2Go, and you’ll receive “bonus” fruits and vegetables through the Georgia Fresh for Less program, effectively doubling your benefits in fresh produce. If you write “EBT” in the order comment field, we will be able to award your bonus dollars. At this time, all EBT transactions must be made by swiping your card at the Statesboro Convention and Visitors Bureau during the Thursday drive-through. If you want to use your card to make market purchases or you know somebody who does, you can learn how by emailing market2gostatesboro@gmail.com.

PICKUP PROCESS

Statesboro customers can pick up orders on Thursday afternoon in the drive-through at the Statesboro Convention and Visitors Bureau (SCVB). Watch for a Market UPDATE Wednesday night giving specific pickup times.

EBT orders may be made online with assistance from the Market2Go manager. Pickups will be only at the Statesboro drive-through, where we can calculate your bonus dollars and swipe your EBT card for the correct amount.

Sylvania orders may be picked up in front of the Victory Gardens General Store at 124 W Telephone Street on Thursday afternoon from 4:00 to 5:00.

Home Delivery option. Statesboro and Bulloch County residents can have their orders delivered to their homes on Thursday afternoon by purchasing the item “Home Delivery” and selecting “To Your Home Delivery” in the drop-down location menu at checkout.
