Farmers Market Vouchers Available
in Clearfield County

 

The CCAAA, Inc. has once again joined with the PA Department of Agriculture and the PA Department of Aging to administer the Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program.
  
To be eligible for the program, a person must be age 60 or older and live in Clearfield County. Their total annual income must be at or below $20,036 for a single person or $26,955 for a married couple. Income limits are subject to change. Proof of age and residency is required (driver’s license, photo ID, ATA card, etc.).

Each consumer will receive four $5 vouchers with a list of participating farmers markets. Vouchers will be offered through September 30 or until all vouchers are distributed.

If you are not able to pick up the vouchers yourself, a friend or family member can pick them up for you. They may pick up a proxy form at the Agency on Aging or one of the Centers for Active Living. Forms can also be printed here. Once you have filled out the form, your family member or friend may then take the proxy form to one of the participating sites. The form must be signed by the eligible individual prior to picking up the vouchers, and identification for both persons must be submitted by the proxy when applying for vouchers.   

The distribution of vouchers will continue until the supply allocated is depleted. Once the supply is depleted, eligible seniors may be placed on a waiting list in the event more vouchers will be released by the PA Department of Agriculture.
