Double Up Food Bucks (DUFB) is a nutrition incentive program that matches Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP benefits to enable participants to purchase additional fruits and vegetables.
For every dollar spent on SNAP-eligible foods at participating farmers markets, farm share programs, and some groceries across the state, SNAP recipients receive an additional dollar to spend on Oregon grown fruits and vegetables, up to $10 per visit.
In Oregon, a successful pilot program ran from 2015-2018 when the Farmers Market Fund raised $1.5 million, including $500,000 from a USDA FINI grant to run DUFB at 60+ farmers markets.
