Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP)

The Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) in Phenix City, AL, is dedicated to enhancing the well-being of low-income seniors aged 60 and older by providing them with vital food assistance through a coupon system. Administered by the Alabama Department of Agriculture & Industries, this program enables eligible seniors to obtain vouchers for purchasing fresh, locally grown produce such as fruits, vegetables, honey, and fresh-cut herbs directly from farmers at approved farmers markets and roadside stands. Participants receive their food vouchers by mail, allowing them to make nutritious choices at accessible locations, with all coupons needing to be spent by November 15 of the calendar year. Join us in supporting the health of our senior community while promoting local agriculture.
