snap ebt benefits can buy plants/seeds

[Gayleyy]

Do places like lowes and tsc take ebt cards?

I do not think so, but sometimes you can get fruit trees, and veggie plants at wal-mart and places like it.

I have never heard of this, so I looked it up. That is actually pretty amazing, one pack of seeds can produce so much! I wish they would tell people about this. My neighbor wanted to have some Tomatoes and a few other things, but like most single moms is always broke. I told her she could have some of mine of course, but I am going to tell her about this. I am going to tell everyone I know! LOL This could help so many people! Thank you for sharing this!

Here is where I found the info if anyone wants to look: http://www.fns.usda.gov/snap/eligible-food-items

I'm glad to have found this information as I am a hard working father of 6 growing boys that gets food assistance and avidly grows a garden. Although I wish I would have found this before I purchased all my seeds and plants, I will definitley remember this next year!
