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. Customers can still use any existing balance on their cards, and any CalFresh or Market Match vouchers remain valid. Our farmers' markets will continue to process CalFresh & Market Match for customers with an existing EBT balance.
