Concerning mobile market programs.
Senate Bill 5214 establishes a mobile market program to increase access to fresh, healthy foods for participants in the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) and Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Programs. This program allows eligible nonprofit mobile markets to accept these federal nutrition benefits, aiming to support both low-income households in areas with limited food access and local farmers. The program's implementation is contingent on federal funding and requires the Department to define specific rules, including ensuring mobile markets are operated by nonprofits and do not compete with existing farmers markets.
