Increase funding for programs, like NH Feeding NH, Granite State Market Match, and Double Up Food Bucks to improve access to fresh, local foods. Expand Granite State Market Match to farm stores by identifying eligible locations, addressing staffing and infrastructure needs, and providing capacity-building support to integrate EBT into existing POS systems. Enhance accessibility further by supporting farm stores and farmers’ markets to offer SNAP incentives, extend operating hours, and implement cold storage solutions.
