DTA Finder - A new tool for finding HIP vendors near you
DTA has created a new tool to help SNAP clients find open Healthy Incentives Program (HIP) farm vendor locations near them for safe, healthy shopping options: DTAFinder.com.
DTA Finder is an interactive map that allows you to search for up-to-date HIP locations. Some of the main features include:
Search locations by month and day of week open or "open today"
Search locations by city, county, or device geolocation (“my location”)
Search locations by availability of curbside pickup, delivery, and other distribution options
View the names of HIP farms who sell at a farmers' market -- not all farms at farmers markets process HIP
Export search results in Excel
See information about the HIP vendor (description, contact info, products, picture)
Navigate to the HIP location address using google maps
Mobile friendly and available in 5 languages
Additional HIP resources:
Tutorial videos on how to use DTA Finder on a mobile device and desktop computer can be found in English and Spanish on the DTA YouTube channel.
DTA’s Mass.gov/HIP pages have been updated to include more information on HIP, step-by-step instructions on how to use HIP at different types of vendors, and HIP flyers.
