RESTAURANTS THAT TAKE EBT WANTED! BURBANK ORGANIC FARMERS MARKET TAKES EBT

We get so many hits and there are so many searches for Restaurants that take EBT and serve good food, places you can sit down and have a meal, eat well and slowly!  

Go to our PAGE which will provide a LINK to the latest listing for LA County as the links have just been u[pdated.  Please let us know if you know of any that are not yet listed!

If there is a privately owned place you'd like to use EBT at, you may want to suggest to the owner that they get in touch with the STATE OF CALIFORNIA to open an EBT account!  (We hear it can take months.)  WE ARE INTERESTED IN PLACES THAT TAKE THE EBT FOOD PORTION not the CASH PORTION!

Also we've learned that the BURBANK ORGANIC MARKET WHICH OCCURS ON SATURDAY MORNINGS in the parking lot across from CENTRAL LIBRARY (not far from the POLICE STATION) is taking EBT.

The way this works is that you decide how much EBT you want to spend.  You get vouchers worth one dollar each to spend at the booths.   You may have to provide some change or negotiate for another onion since your purchase may not be exactly by dollar.
