How to get Health Bucks
Recipients of SNAP Benefits
For every $2 spent at farmers markets using SNAP on an EBT card, you can get $2 in Health Bucks up to $10 per day. Health Bucks are available year-round at NYC farmers markets that accept EBT.
Community- and Faith-Based Organizations
Organizations can apply to receive Free Health Bucks to distribute to community members as an incentive to participate in nutrition education and other health-related activities. Note, these Health Bucks are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.
The 2022 application for Free Health Bucks is now closed. For next year's application, check back here in Spring 2023.
If your organization would like to purchase Health Bucks coupons, email farmersmarkets@health.nyc.gov for more information.
