Double Up Food Bucks!!

To provide community members with additional access to affordable and healthy foods, the Beloit Farmers Market is partnering with SSM Health and Wisconsin Nutrition Incentive Network (WINI) to support the ‘Double Up Food Bucks’ program in 2026. 

The Double Up Food Bucks program encourages community members who receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits to purchase fresh produce by providing a dollar-for-dollar match to their SNAP spending — up to $20 per week—for the purchase of fruits and vegetables from local vendors. 

Many Beloit Farmers Market vendors accept SNAP and Double Up Food Bucks tokens, which can be received at the Beloit Farmers Market information booth, as a form of payment.
