You know how you pay extra taxes on sugary beverages in Seattle? That money goes to fund Fresh Bucks, which provides $40 a month to spend on fruits and vegetables to Seattle residents who qualify based on income.
The income threshold is lower than you might think — a household of 1 can make up to $77,700 and still qualify for benefits. I’ve been receiving Fresh Bucks for a few years now, and it’s been a huge help with my grocery budget!
