Abstract

The Executive Office of Elder Affairs and the Department of Food and Agriculture in Massachusetts sponsored the first statewide Farmers' Market Coupon Program for Elders in the summer of 1988. This innovative program provided fresh fruits and vegetables to over nine thousand elders across the Commonwealth. Coupons were targeted towards low income elders by thirteen local nutrition projects. Special nutrition education materials were designed to enhance the program.
