MARKET MATCH - DOUBLE YOUR EBT FOOD SPENDING POWER ON PRODUCE AT PARTICIPATING MARKETS!

Such a DEAL!  We all like to shop Farmers Markets but let's face it the prices can be higher - especially when the produce is ORGANIC.  So get this.  You get $20 of produce by using $10 of your EBT/CalFresh Benefit.  WIC participants are also eligible.


FARMERS MARKET FINDER - tells you which participate in MARKET MATCH,

THE FOLLOWING MARKETS MATCH YOUR $10 with $10 and this is PER MARKET DAY, meaning you can shop more than one market a week.  (Go to the Finder for MORE markets!)

IMPERIAL VALLEY FOOD BANK - MULTIPLE PROGRAMS INCLUDING $25 BOX OF FOOD

IMPERIAL VALLEY FOOD BANK - AN INDEPENDENT NON PROFIT - MULTIPLE PROGRAMS 

CalFresh Outreach
Nutrition Education
Community Gardens


Weekend Backpack Program

We partner with 35 schools in Imperial Valley to distribute close to 600 backpacks of food for children for the weekends.  Many students in the Imperial Valley qualify for free and reduced fee breakfasts and lunches, and may not know if they'll have food to eat over the weekend without the Backpack Program.  Please contact Cecilia (cecilia@ivfoodbank.org), 760-370-0966 for more information.

Mobile Food Pantry

Thanks to a generous donation from the WalMart Foundation, we are able to bring food to the rural communities in our Valley.  We go to Winterhaven, Bombay, Ocotillo, Seeley, Calipatria, Niland, Westmorland, and the Salton Sea.  Please contact Cecilia (cecilia@ivfoodbank.org) or 760-370-0966 for more information.
