Eat Well

Eat Well offers $40 per month for fruits and vegetables to eligible patients in Mecklenburg County.

Eligible participants will receive an email or text message from Eat Well that contains a personalized link to the enrollment site. Once you submit the information on the enrollment site, $40 will be immediately available on your Food Lion MVP card. Another $40 will be added on the 1st of each following month.

To spend your Eat Well funds, just scan your Food Lion MVP card or use your phone number at checkout and eligible items will come off your grocery bill.

Your remaining balance will be printed at the bottom of your receipt, so it’s easy to keep track of how much you have left. You can take as many shopping trips as you need to spend your balance.
