Senior Vouchers Back for Fresh Food | Wilmington News
Description
Feast Down East is reviving its Senior Mobile Market Voucher Program, bringing fresh local produce back to older adults in New Hanover, Brunswick, and Pender counties—thanks to funding from the Duke Energy Foundation and Catherine Kennedy Home Foundation. Seniors now receive weekly vouchers redeemable at mobile markets stationed right where they live, like senior centers and low-income housing, making healthy food affordable and accessible while fostering community connections. The program tracks usage to ensure impact and supports local farmers—all helping seniors eat better, spend less, and stay socially engaged.
