Farmers Market Coupons available for eligible seniors in Orleans County

Farmers Market Coupons are available at the Orleans County Office for the Aging (OFA) for eligible seniors. The 2024 monthly income guidelines for a one-person household is $2,322, for a two-person household is $3,152, and for a three person household is $3,981. For households with more than three people, information is available by calling 589-3191. One must be 60 years old or older to receive the coupons. Those who meet the age requirement and are living in subsidized housing are eligible with no income guidelines.

General open pick up is from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday at the Orleans County Office for the Aging, 14016 Route 31 West, Albion. Those with mobility issues can park in the front row of the parking lot near the stop sign and call 589-3191 upon arrival. Someone will come out to you.
Each person in the household is eligible to receive a coupon booklet if they meet the age and income requirements. The eligible senior must sign in person or a Power of Attorney with proper paperwork may sign too.

OFA Director Melissa Blanar says, “The farmers market coupons provide access to fresh, local fruits and vegetables and help to inspire healthier lifestyles.”
