Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP)

The Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) in Toney, AL, is dedicated to enhancing the health and well-being of low-income seniors aged 60 and over by providing valuable food assistance. This program, administered by the Alabama Department of Agriculture & Industries, empowers seniors to access fresh, local produce by offering food vouchers redeemable for eligible items such as fruits, vegetables, honey, and fresh-cut herbs at participating farmers markets and roadside stands. By connecting seniors directly with local farmers, we not only promote nutritional wellbeing but also support local agriculture. Once approved, participants will receive their vouchers by mail, which must be used by November 15 of the calendar year, ensuring timely access to nutritious food for those who need it most.
