About Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP)

The Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) in Cottondale, AL, is dedicated to enhancing the nutrition of low-income seniors aged 60 and older by providing them with food assistance in the form of coupons. These vouchers enable seniors to purchase fresh, locally grown foods including fruits, vegetables, honey, and fresh-cut herbs directly from farmers at approved farmers markets and roadside stands. Administered by the Alabama Department of Agriculture & Industries, this vital program not only supports the health and well-being of our senior community but also strengthens local agriculture and preserves the direct connection between seniors and local farmers. Eligible participants can apply to receive food vouchers by mail, which must be utilized by November 15 of the year issued, ensuring they have access to nutritious food throughout the growing season.
