Participants are given ten, $5 vouchers to use at Farmers Markets and Roadside stands that display a sign that reads, “Senior Project FRESH / Market FRESH Welcome Here.” The participant may choose from any Michigan-grown, non-processed product, including honey, that is for sale. The participant uses the voucher like cash to pay for the products. Cash must be used to finish your purchase if it is more than what your coupons are worth.
Coupons cannot be used for items that are not normally grown in Michigan, such as bananas, oranges and pineapples. They also cannot be used on potted plants, flowers, cheese, meat, or eggs, even though some of these are good sources of nutrition.
Participants also receive nutrition education when they get their coupons. This may be done at a class, one-to-one, or sometimes at the market. Please check with your Local Community Senior Center for more information.
