Agenda Item Text:
Approve Amendment #4, to IGA HG861327, Farmer's Market Nutrition Program (FMNP), between the Arizona Department of Health Services and the Cochise County Health Department, in the amount of $312.50, for the period of 3/1/11 - 2/28/12.
Background:
The Farmer's Market Nutrition Program is a supplemental nutrition program for income-eligible seniors. The Program provides food vouchers to clients for a variety of staple foods, including: juice, milk, eggs, peanut butter, and beans.
The Farmers Market Nutrition Program is intended to increase consumption of locally grown fresh fruits and vegetables by providing FMNP checks to a limited number of CSFP seniors to purchase these items directly from growers at ADHS-approved farmers’ markets.
Amendment 4 provides $312.50 of funding to issue FMNP checks to 250 senior participants. The price sheet change removes pay items for WIC Farmer's Market Program Services and increases the number of CSFP senior participants for the FMNP program to two-hundred fifty (250) within Cochise County.
