This month’s holiday bag will include an “Oats 5 Ways” insert from University of Maryland Snap Educators. View or download the PDF and find other SNAP-Ed resources here.
We’ll also be including information about B’More Fresh, a Baltimore City incentive program through which residents enrolled in SNAP can earn $30 per month to purchase fruits and vegetables when they shop online with a participating grocer. Please find out more in the PDF and feel free to spread the word to help connect more people with this resource.
