- A new program for CalFresh recipients brings the farmers’ market to the front door
A new program by Food Access LA allows CalFresh recipients to receive fresh produce deliveries from farmers markets in the Atwater Village and Crenshaw areas. The program, which accepts Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) payments, aims to improve accessibility for seniors and people with disabilities. It operates within a 20-mile radius and faces challenges amid nationwide changes to nutrition assistance programs.
