Hilltown Food Bucks
Hilltown CDC has partnered with our local retailers and farm stands to bring you Hilltown Food Bucks, a local effort to help HIlltown residents stretch their food dollars while supporting our critical local food businesses in a difficult time of social and economic stress.
Eligible participants can receive between $100-$125 food coupons per month for five months to be used at participating local stores and farms. The coupons double your spending power when you make a purchase, so a shopping basket worth $80 can be paid for with $40 of coupons and $40 of your own money.
To be eligible, you must live in one of the towns we serve through our Community Block Grant: Ashfield, Blandford, Chester, Chesterfield, Cummington, Goshen, Huntington, Middlefield, Montgomery, Plainfield, Williamsburg and Worthington. Program funding is limited, and will fill on a first come, first serve basis – we will let you know if a slot is available for you after we receive your application. If you are interested, please complete the one page application attached here. For questions on the Hilltown Food Bucks program, please contact Kate Bavelock, Director of Community Programs, at kateb@hilltowncdc.org or 413-296-4536 x 116.
