Farmers’ Market Expansion Act of 2025

This bill would add tree nuts, including shelled tree nuts, to the list of foods that low-income seniors can buy through the Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program. That program gives grants to states so they can provide low-income seniors with coupons or vouchers to buy fresh, locally grown foods at farmers' markets, roadside stands, and community supported agriculture programs. Right now, the program covers fruits, vegetables, honey, and herbs, and this bill would expand it to also cover tree nuts.
