OLGT 2016-18: SNAP – Community Supported Agriculture

The Department, in collaboration with Project Bread and local Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) partners, developed a CSA program initiative for client participation during the 2014 and 2015 CSA Seasons. Under this initiative, SNAP clients purchased CSA shares on a monthly basis using their SNAP benefits and received shares at predetermined community sites. The Department will reinstitute this initiative for the 2016 CSA season. The CSA season begins April 2016 and ends March 2017, or at the end of the individual CSA program’s season, whichever is earlier. The fax number where CSA Cancellation forms must be sent has changed.
