About Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP)

The Seniors Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) in Fort Payne, AL, is dedicated to enhancing the health and well-being of low-income seniors aged 60 and older by providing vital access to fresh, nutritious foods. Administered by the Alabama Department of Agriculture & Industries, this program offers food vouchers that enable seniors to purchase eligible products like fruits, vegetables, honey, and fresh-cut herbs from local farmers at approved farmers markets and roadside stands.
