What is Produce Plus?

Produce Plus supports both DC residents and local farmers by:

  • Providing locally grown, fresh fruits and vegetables to DC residents with limited access to fresh, healthy food.
  • Increasing income for local farmers, many of whom are first generation and BIPOC farmers.


How does Produce Plus work?

From early June through the end of November, participants get $40 per month to spend on fresh fruits, vegetables, and cut herbs at participating farmers’ markets and farm stands throughout Washington, D.C. that accept the Produce benefits card.
