Does anyone know the names/locations of Flatbush grocery stores accepting WIC and/or Food Stamps?
(I am asking for a friend.)

(OP)
I made a few phone calls to local grocery stores, and got the following answers:
Moisha's: Foodstamps yes, WIC no
Pomegranate: Foodstamps yes, WIC no
Ocean Fruit: Foodstamps yes, WIC yes
Mountain Fruit: Foodstamps yes, WIC pending (should be accepting within the next two weeks)
Thank you so much for your help! A special thank you to Greenfire, I would not have tried calling Pomegranate if you hadn't specifically mentioned it!

I've actually heard that is a law in NYC that all groceries must accept Food Stamps. I've used mine just about everywhere without issues. I found just about every Fruit store I tried also does.
Bakeries sometimes do if they also sell groceries.
