Are you a SNAP recipient?
We will be happy to enroll you in our 2026 CSA!
World Farmers is excited to offer Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) as a payment option for our CSA. And, your payment will qualify for Massachusetts Healthy Incentives Program (HIP) benefits.
Review our pricing below, and if you have any questions please call us at the office and ask for Maressa, at 978-706-7935.
Share Pricing
Full Share
The Full Share is designed to feed approximately 4 people, and includes a selection of 9 seasonal leafy greens, root vegetables, fruiting vegetables, herbs and a featured cultural crop (with a recipe!).
Cost: $80 monthly for the months of July-October (16 weeks)
If you receive $80 or more in SNAP dollars per month, this selection will not touch your SNAP dollars. It will pull from your qualifying HIP benefits. If you receive less than $80 per month, we recommend choosing the Partial Share.
Partial Share
The Partial Share is designed to feed approximately 2 people, and includes a selection of 6 seasonal leafy greens, root vegetables, fruiting vegetables, herbs and a featured cultural crop (with a recipe!).
Cost: $60 monthly for the months of July-October (16 weeks)
If you receive $60 or more in SNAP dollars per month, this selection will not touch your SNAP dollars. It will pull from your qualifying HIP benefits. If you receive less than $60 per month, the remainder of the cost will be deducted from your SNAP dollars.
SNAP Signups
The SNAP/HIP CSA operates through a contract with DTA. Once you sign up through the below form, we will reach out to you to fill out the contract.
The contract will operate for 4 months/16 weeks, and will deduct a monthly charge on the day you receive your SNAP dollars.
The contract will select all HIP dollars/benefits first, and any remaining costs will take from your SNAP dollars, so be sure to select the share option that works with your SNAP budget.
We are happy to accept SNAP sign-ups at any point in the season, however we can only sign you up in month-long (4 week) increments because of the way Auto-SNAP works with DTA.
If you have ANY questions, please call us at the office and ask for Maressa, at 978-706-7935.
To sign you up for our CSA, we need to get you enrolled.

If you have questions about our CSA, check out our CSA page, or our FAQ page
Q: What is SNAP?
A: The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is federal assistance that ensures needy families have access to healthy food options.
Q: What is HIP?
A: HIP is the Healthy Incentives Program that promotes SNAP clients to purchase more locally grown fruits and vegetables from farmers’ markets, farm stands, mobile markets, and CSA farm shares. Benefits will automatically be deducted when you use your SNAP benefits to buy healthy, local produce from participating vendors.
It is important to know that once you are enrolled in SNAP, you automatically qualify for HIP benefits with no additional steps!! You just have to be sure you’re spending SNAP dollars at a certified HIP vendor. World Farmers is a HIP vendor, so your HIP benefits will pay for your CSA share.
Q: How do I use my SNAP benefits to purchase my CSA?
A: You will pay for your CSA with what’s called Auto-SNAP. Each month, directly after receiving your SNAP dollars, the cost of your CSA will be withdrawn from your account on that same day.
Q: So I’ll spend all of my SNAP dollars?
A: Not necessarily! We have two share size options for you to choose from. As long as you receive at least that amount in SNAP dollars, then your share will not use any SNAP dollars, and will instead pull from your HIP benefits, which can only be spent with certified vendors.
Still have questions? Call the office and ask for Maressa (978) 706-7935.
Q: So how do I sign up?!
A: If you are planning to pay for your World Farmers CSA with SNAP/EBT, we ask that you fill out the form above. We cannot take SNAP payments online, so we will follow up with you to get you signed up.
