Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP)

The Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) in Bay Minette, AL, is dedicated to empowering low-income seniors aged 60 and older by providing them with food assistance through valuable coupons. These vouchers can be redeemed for fresh, locally grown fruits, vegetables, honey, and fresh-cut herbs directly from farmers at authorized farmers markets and roadside stands. Administered by the Alabama Department of Agriculture & Industries, this program aims to enhance the nutritional well-being of seniors while supporting local agriculture. If approved, participants will receive their food vouchers by mail, which must be used by November 15 of the year they are issued, ensuring that seniors have access to wholesome, nutritious food throughout the growing season.
