Discounted CSAs for SNAP beneficiaries!
Purchase a Rainshadow CSA using your SNAP benefits, and Double Up Food Bucks will cover up to half the cost of the CSA!
At Rainshadow Organics we believe that everyone deserves access to local, nutrient dense food. We partner with Pacific Northwest CSA Coalition to make using your SNAP Benefits as easy as possible. Pay for your CSA share monthly with your Oregon Trail Card food benefits. For shares that are vegetable only, Double Up Food Bucks will cover half your CSA cost. For Meat and Vegetable shares, Double Up Food Bucks will cover the price of the vegetables valued to half the cost of the CSA. This makes providing food for your home even more affordable and stretches your food dollar even further!*
You can use your SNAP benefits to purchase any of our CSAs, but only the shares with vegetables will qualify for the DUFB scholarship. Check our individual CSA pages for more details!
Please reach out if you have any questions! We are committed to making our food accessible and want to work with you to make this work. (Email: [email protected])
(*What are Double Up Food Bucks? This is a program that “matches” SNAP benefits used on vegetable CSAS for up to 50% off of the vegetable portion of the CSA. Essentially free money that can only be used on a CSA purchase.)
How Do I sign Up?
Step 1: Learn what your monthly benefits are and what your CSA budget is and decide if the CSA option will work for you.
Step 2: Purchase your CSA on that CSA’s page (Summer, Winter) (Purchase using the SNAP/EBT option and select cash to pay.) No money will be exchanged, but this is how you reserve your spot.
Step 4: Wait for us and Pacific Northwest CSA Coalition to reach out with additional instructions and forms. This will include waivers to sign so PNW CSA Coalition can run your Oregon Trail Card monthly on your dispersal date.
Step 5: Enjoy your CSA!
