Farmers Market season has commenced, and the Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) is providing income-eligible seniors with an opportunity to access fresh produce. Administered by the Illinois Department on Aging and Illinois Department of Human Services, the program offers up to $50 worth of locally grown fruits, vegetables, herbs, and honey from certified farmers.
The SFMNP distributes free coupon books containing five $10 checks to over 28,000 low-income older adults in Illinois each year. To qualify, participants must be at least 60 years old and have a household income at or below 185% of the federal poverty level.
