The Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) in Athens, AL, is dedicated to supporting low-income seniors aged 60 and older by providing essential food assistance through a voucher system. Administered by the Alabama Department of Agriculture & Industries, this program empowers seniors to purchase fresh, locally grown fruits, vegetables, honey, and fresh-cut herbs directly from farmers at approved farmers markets and roadside stands. By receiving food vouchers, seniors gain access to nutritious foods while promoting local agriculture. Vouchers are mailed to participants and must be redeemed by November 15 of the calendar year they are issued, ensuring that seniors can enjoy the benefits of fresh produce throughout the market season.
