Food-based
health care
We don’t prescribe medication. Rather, we’re a nutritious food ‘farmacy’ helping with chronic disease and food insecurity by prescribing Ohioans with weekly fresh produce for themselves and their household.
A new prescription for health
Farmacy Ohio is a partnership with patients and health care providers that seeks to improve health through better food access, supporting the mission in ending hunger, and co-creating communities where everyone thrives.
Take the next step to a healthier you
Eating fresh, healthy foods not only boosts physical and mental well-being but can also help manage conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease.
Every week, our patients can work towards a healthier future by picking up fresh produce from one of our Farmacy locations. To become a Farmacy patient, simply sign up with your doctor or healthcare provider.
Farmacy program eligibility
The state of Ohio issues clear guidelines and hunger relief agencies are required to collect income eligibility information. This allows us to better serve you, making sure that you obtain adequate food for those in your household.
Participants must have a household income at 200% of the Federal Poverty Level or below to qualify for assistance. Each Farmacy Ohio location needs this information for your visit.
