There’s still time to grab and use this year’s Senior Farmer’s Market coupon booklet, distributed through local senior centers and other agencies. Each booklet includes five coupons valued at $7 each, which can be used to buy fresh produce and other items at local farmer’s markets, authorized roadside stands and other select locations. Applicants must be at least 60 years old and meet low-income eligibility guidelines. Links to the online application and a list of where to get the booklets are at the state’s Dept. of Health and Social Services website. Go to https://bit.ly/3w3IPAD and scroll down to the “Senior Farmer’s Market Nutrition Program” section. Or call your local senior center or meal program for details. There’s also a proxy application form that allows someone to apply on behalf of someone else.
Coupons may be used through Sept. 30.
