Double Dollars distribution ends March 10
March 10 will be the last Tuesday to receive Double Dollars vouchers until late October, although you’ll still be able to use them through May, while program funds last. If you have Double Dollars vouchers at the end of this May that you were not able to spend, you can keep those Double Dollars until October and use them during the next Co-op Double Dollars season.

As a reminder, customers who use their FoodShare/QUEST (SNAP) benefits when they shop are eligible to receive Double Dollars vouchers to shop at the Co-op for every $5 they spend on their EBT card, up to $20. The vouchers can be used at any Co-op retail location any day of the week through May. Double Dollars are good for fresh, canned and frozen fruits, vegetables and legumes as well as seeds and seedlings for edible plants to grow in your garden.
