Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP)

The Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) in Pell City, AL, is dedicated to enhancing the health and well-being of low-income seniors aged 60 and older by providing essential food assistance through valuable coupons. These vouchers allow seniors to purchase fresh fruits, vegetables, honey, and fresh-cut herbs directly from local farmers at approved farmers markets and roadside stands. Administered by the Alabama Department of Agriculture & Industries, this program not only supports nutritional awareness but also fosters connections to local agriculture. Eligible participants can apply for the program and, upon approval, will receive their food vouchers by mail, which must be used by November 15 of the calendar year. Join us in making healthy local food accessible to seniors in our community.
