Enjoy delicious food and make your SNAP go farther by using HIP benefits with a local farmer! 

Join the NOFA/Mass Food Access Team as we use the garden harvest (or farmshare) to make a quick and nutritious meal. This event’s recipe will feature a dish prepared with fall greens, such as kale, chard, collards, or beet greens.

Hameed Bello, the owner of Agric Organics, will bring their mobile market for participants to purchase the ingredients in the recipe (and a few more goodies!) to take home. This workshop welcomes food assistance program participants – SNAP, HIP, WIC, and Senior vouchers – and is also open to everyone! It’s an interactive event that’s especially geared towards those who are new to working with harvest vegetables, and also those that have participated in farmshare events before.

During this event, the NOFA/Mass Food Access Team will review the benefits of food raised in healthy soil, demonstrate how to cook the recipe, and discuss how to use SNAP/HIP to access locally grown nutrient-dense food. 

Accessibility:

Onsite interpretation will be available.
