Farmers Market Vouchers

Congregate Meals

In addition to a hot meal five days a week, this program gives people age 60 and older an opportunity to socialize and enjoy the company of old and new friends alike. You can maintain your health and independence surrounded by people who care. Meals are provided at all Cumberland County Senior Centers at no cost (donations accepted)

Home Delivered Meals

Home delivered meals are nutritionally balanced frozen meals that are delivered once a week to a homebound person who is unable to prepare their meals and has no one else available to do so.

Farmers Market Vouchers

Financially eligible seniors receive five $10.00 ($50.00 total) vouchers that can be used to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables grown in PA. The program starts each year in June and the vouchers are good until November 30th.
