Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP)

The Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) in Ozark, AL, is dedicated to enhancing the well-being of low-income seniors aged 60 and older by providing essential food assistance. Administered by the Alabama Department of Agriculture & Industries, this program offers valuable coupons for purchasing fresh, local produce such as fruits, vegetables, honey, and fresh-cut herbs from local farmers. By connecting seniors with farmers at approved farmers markets and roadside stands, SFMNP not only supports healthy eating but also fosters community ties. Seniors can easily apply for these food vouchers, which will be mailed to them, allowing them to enjoy nutritious food options until November 15 of the calendar year they received their vouchers.
