Commodity Supplemental Food Program
What is the purpose of this program?
The Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) gives a box of healthy shelf-stable food each month to eligible seniors. This food comes from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and helps older adults eat better. People age 60 and older who qualify should contact the regional center that serves their county.

- SFMNP is a Federal nutrition assistance program that provides low-income seniors with seasonal benefits that can be exchanged for eligible foods directly from farmers, farmers’ markets, roadside stands, and community-supported agriculture programs (CSAs). CSFP and SFMNP work in tandem to serve the low-income senior population and help meet their nutritional needs. Connecting CSFP participants with SFMNP creates new opportunities for American farmers to connect with Federal nutrition assistance programs.
