Description:

We’re thrilled for another installment of our Summer Farm Dividend this season — a program that builds connections between communities and the people, land, and resources that nourish us. Enjoy local (to you) food while reinvesting in your food ecosystem — and earn up to $100 while doing it.

The Summer Farm Dividend is an account credit of up to $100 for shopping at your local farms, farmers’ markets, or related businesses.

Eligibility: You are eligible to receive up to $100 as long as, by June 21, 2026:

  • You have an open Walden checking account (Spend Local or Grow Local) in good standing, and
  • Your aggregate balance across all personal accounts where you are the primary account owner — including Grow Local, Spend Local, Save Local, and Local Impact CDs — is at least $5,000.

Note: For joint accounts, the balance counts toward the primary account owner’s qualification. If the primary account owner qualifies for the Dividend and would like a secondary owner to redeem it, send us an email before June 17, 2026. For more information on joint account owner eligibility, please see the terms & conditions.

To Participate:

  1. Make purchases with your Walden debit card at your local farm, farmers’ market, or related food business between June 21 and September 21, 2026.
  2. Fill out the redemption survey (delivered by email and within online banking at the start of the summer) with what you bought, where, and why.
  3. That’s it! We’ll issue a credit for the amount you submitted via the survey (up to $100) to your account by the 5th of each month throughout the summer.

Which businesses are eligible? If you can answer “yes” to both of the following questions, then it’s covered:

  • Are you buying food or beverages from a farm, farmers’ market, co-op, or independently owned business?
  • Is the merchant you’re shopping at local to where you live (within one hour’s distance)?

Please review the terms & conditions for the full details of the program.

"In the early days of getting the bank ready for launch, we talked a lot about the design of our hero benefit. We settled on the Summer Farm Dividend because it cuts to the core of our mission - enabling our partners to directly support the businesses that are a part of our local food ecosystem."
