1 OH $1=$2 GEORGIA SNAP! double foodstamp dollars at local, producer-only farmers

while supporting sustainable farmers and contributing to the local food economy.

2 WHAT WE DO Wholesome Wave Georgia (WWG) believes that all Georgians should have access to wholesome, locallygrown food. By doubling each Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, aka Food Stamp) dollar spent at our sustainable, producer-only farmers, we hope to increase access to good food for all Georgians while supporting sustainable farmers and contributing to the local food economy. ATHENS FIELD DEC EAST ATLAN LAGE EAST L FORSYTH GRA PARK INTERN TIONAL CITY BERRY STREE EACHTREE WWG has grown from three partner in 2009 to a network of 35 and direct-marketing farms in We are located in 25 cities throughout the state, stretching from Metro Atlanta to Valdosta, from Pine Mountain to Augusta. HOW IT WORKS In this booklet you will find a list of WWG partner farmers across the state. Visit the nearest partner market with your EBT card and head to the Information Booth. A market staff member will swipe your EBT card for an amount you choose and then give you DOUBLE that amount in tokens to spend on SNAP-eligible food items at the market. That means if you take $10 off your card, the staff will give you $20 in tokens. You can get up to $50 in EBT doubled each time you visit a market! If you don t use all of your tokens in one visit, don t worry, just bring them back and spend them at the same market when you visit again! SNAP ENROLLMENT Do you qualify for Food Stamps?
