Double Up Food Bucks
How it Works
We’ll double your dollars for buying fruits and vegetables with your SNAP (food stamps/EBT) card.
We’ll match every $1 you spend at participating farmers markets and grocery stores in Kansas and Missouri with another $1 FREE so you can buy more fruits and vegetables, up to $25 more per day.
The way Double Up Food Bucks works at farmers markets is different than at grocery stores. Learn how below.
