SCS/SB 787 - This act establishes the Missouri Senior Farmers' Market Nutritional Program by requiring the Department of Agriculture to apply for a federal grant to provide low-income seniors with vouchers that may be exchanged for eligible foods at farmers' markets, roadside stands, and community-supported agriculture programs. Eligible seniors shall receive vouchers from designated distribution sites in their counties of residence and also be provided with a list of participating farmers, farmers' markets, roadside stands, and community-supported programs. This act is substantially similar to SB 373 (2017), HB 327 (2017), and HB 2331 (2016) and similar to SB 332 (2015) and HB 154 (2015). SARAH HASKINS
