The Healthy Incentives Program (HIP) gives an instant refund when you buy produce with SNAP from HIP vendors.
If you have SNAP, you already have HIP! You do not need to do anything else, except use it and purchase produce!
The amount you get depends on your household size
- 1-2 people: $40 per month
- 3-5 people: $60 per month
- 6 or more: $80 per month
Example: Select apples and corn at a HIP vendor’s tent. Give the vendor your SNAP card. If you spend $12, you’ll instantly get $12 back into your account. (This does require that you have at least $1 in your account for the farmer to process the transaction.)
