What is CalFresh?

CalFresh can help you stretch your food budget, so you can buy healthy food — up to $291* for individuals and up to $973* for a family of four. Monthly amounts are based on eligibility requirements, including household size, income and expenses. The program issues benefits on a debit-type card that can be used at grocery stores, farmers markets and online, such as at Albertsons, Vons, Amazon and Walmart.
