OFA farmers’ market coupons will also be available to eligible seniors at community office hours while supplies last. The coupons can only be used to buy locally grown fresh fruits and vegetables from participating farmers and farmers’ markets. They are not redeemable in supermarkets. The value of each booklet is $25.
Each older adult in a household is eligible to receive a booklet if they meet age and income requirements. They must be aged 60 or over and their gross income must be at or below 185% of federal poverty guidelines, which is $2,413 monthly for a one-person household or $3,261 monthly for a two-person household.
