Important Update About CalFresh Benefits

Due to the ongoing federal government shutdown, November 2025 CalFresh (SNAP/EBT) benefits are likely to be delayed and will not be loaded onto EBT cards on November 1st.

Our farmers' markets will continue to process CalFresh & Market Match for customers with an existing EBT balance.
