There is one little grocery, (quite a ways away) where (Bless his heart) the produce manager
breaks up clumps of celery, carrots, green onions, etc,, in case you don't want to buy a dozen
carrots at a time or a whole clump of celery.
Not worth the gas to travel there, but I stop if I'm in that area.
It's nice for people living alone.
I'm thinking about getting a new freezer, there isn't enough room for more than 48 tubs of ice cream in the old one.
They were distributing the vouchers at the senior center I attended for our local farmer's market. I wasn't eligible due to my income but those vouchers helped those who were, for sure. An organization also distributes boxes of produce and some canned goods right around the corner from me. A couple of my neighbors, who's are both blind take full advantage. One of them shared some fruit with me a couple of times, because I had gotten him on the list of seniors who were getting free dinners a few times a week during COVID. After accepting the fruit a couple of times I told him to share the produce with others (who need the help). Very thoughtful post Kat.In NY state there is the Farmer's Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) that runs from June through November 30th. They distribute coupons to be used at your local farmer's markets. It is income based. If you are interested in it and wonder how to apply for it contact your local office for the aging.
