Littleton Food Co-op’s Healthy Food Access Program Increases Community Access to Healthy, Local, and Organic Food.
The Healthy Food Access Program (HFA) is a discount program designed to make healthy food more accessible to everyone in our community, regardless of income. Littleton Food Co-op members who are currently recipients of SNAP, SSI, or other supplemental assistance are likely eligible. Approved members receive 10% off all eligible* purchases.
The Fine Print
You must be a Littleton Food Co-op member to apply for the HFA program.
- Only 1 share of $25 is needed to get started saving! Qualified community members may request 1 share ($25) from our HFA Fund to become a partial member and start saving though the HFA program. This share is non refundable. If membership is terminated for any reason the $25 (1 share) will go back into the HFA fund to help others become members and receive the same financial assistance. The HFA Fund was created as part of our Partner of the Month Program. Members/Owners and customers rounded up to make sure everyone who needed assistance could be served with our HFA program. Shares may be added to become a full voting member. If financially able, the first $25 share can be donated back into the HFA Fund at any time.
- HFA membership must be renewed annually. A renewal reminder will be sent out in November. Expiration dates are December 31st each year. Participants in the HFA Program are not eligible for patronage rebates while enrolled. The HFA discount may only be used by the person(s) approved during your application process.
