SNAP-Ed Program Allows Doctors to Prescribe Vegetables

Did you know you can actually have your doctor write you a prescription for vegetables? SNAP-Ed New York offers online and in-person classes through a program and Becky McCormick, their nutrition educator for the Northern Finger Lakes, explains who can take part.

 

Program attendees will receive vouchers.

 

Becky adds that vouchers will also be accepted at all farmers’ markets in Seneca and Cayuga counties when they reopen this year.  To listen to Becky’s entire conversation from FLX Morning News, click here.
