Double Up Food Bucks New York

undefined

In 2014, Field & Fork Network began administering the Double Up Food Bucks program at 7 farmer’s markets in Western New York. Since then, Double Up has grown to 30 counties and more than 230 sites across New York, and become a model for communities nationwide.

Field & Fork Network believes big ideas and bold actions are needed to create lasting change in and with communities. Double Up is one of the ambitious ways it is helping communities harness the power of food.

It's Easy to Get Started!

When you use your SNAP benefits, Double Up matches your fruit and vegetable purchases dollar for dollar (up to $20 a day). That means you and your family get twice the fresh fruits and veggies.
