We're pleased to partner with Community Farm Alliance in 2026 to offer Kentucky Double Dollars to our SNAP and FMNP shoppers! Thank you to everyone working hard to make each of these programs a success.

We look forward to launching the 2026 WIC and Senior FMNP programs soon!

Community Farm Alliance (CFA) is proud to announce the KY Double Dollars 2026 launch, bringing expanded access to fresh, locally grown food for families across Kentucky while supporting farmers and local economies.

KY Double Dollars is a statewide nutrition incentive program that aims to make healthy, locally grown food more affordable for low-income families while simultaneously boosting the income of Kentucky farmers. Shoppers using SNAP, Summer EBT/SUN Bucks, WIC Farmers Market Nutrition, and Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Benefits receive additional funds to spend at participating farmers markets, farm stands, and grocery stores at over 100 locations across the state.

For example, for every $1 spent from a customer’s SNAP EBT card at a participating location, the customer will receive an additional $1 in “Double Dollars” to spend on fresh vegetables and fruit. Many locations also offer Double Dollars for meat, eggs, and dairy products that are produced by Kentucky farms, providing a maximum benefit of $20 per day.

With an expanded network of participating locations and community partners, KY Double Dollars aims to reach more residents than ever before, particularly in underserved and rural areas.
