Power of Produce Club (POP Club) for Kids
The Power of Produce Club, or POP Club, is a kids program offered by the Saratoga Farmers’ Market and now entering its eighth season. This free, 12-week experience welcomes children ages 5 to 12 to explore fresh foods, healthy habits, and local agriculture through hands-on activities, games, crafts, tastings, and other educational learning. Each week brings new activities led by local farmers, educators, nonprofits, and community groups. Participants receive a $4 POP coin to spend on fruits and vegetables, and they can fill a POP Passport with stamps to earn prizes as the season goes on. Support for the program is provided by the Christopher Dailey Foundation.
