The Mississippi Department of Agriculture and Commerce is providing income-eligible senior citizens access to healthier foods through the Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP).
The SFMNP provides benefits in the form of a benefit card valued at $40 that can be used at authorized farmers markets in 28 counties across Mississippi for the purchase of locally grown fruits, vegetables and honey. Program information including program criteria and how to apply for and redeem the benefit card can be found on the Farmers Market Nutrition Program webpage at www.mdac.ms.gov/programs/farmers-market-nutrition-program. Senior citizens that applied online and received benefits previously must reapply online in order to receive benefits in 2026.
