Wholesome Wave Georgia (WWG) makes fresh, healthy, locally-grown produce affordable and available to Georgians through partnerships with over 75 statewide partners, such as farmers markets, farm stands, brick-and-mortar retailers, and healthcare providers. 

WWG has facilitated more than $5.5 million in economic impact via spending at partner sites since 2009 by matching the value of SNAP/EBT (commonly referred to as food stamps) on fruit and vegetable purchases. That means families who spend $10 using SNAP/EBT receive $20 of locally-grown food. 

Alongside healthcare partners, Wholesome Wave Georgia also provides food prescriptions that make locally-grown food free for participants, which comes with healthy lifestyle coaching. 

Additionally, Wholesome Wave Georgia offers SNAP benefits assistance through free screenings, enrollments and renewals so that everyday Georgians can access resources they need.
