Farmers' Market Nutrition Program 

The Department for the Aging’s Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) is a seasonal option that provides eligible older adults with access to locally grown fruits, vegetables, and herbs. Eligible participants receive coupons to redeem fresh produce at participating farmers’ markets, farm stands, and mobile markets. The program promotes improved nutrition through increased consumption of locally grown fresh fruits and vegetables and expands sales at farmers’ markets and farm stands.
