At a recent Board of Supervisors meeting, a $13,000 Member Jurisdiction Grant was awarded to Des Moines Waterfront Farmers Market’s Low Income Senior Healthy Eating Initiative. KCD has funded this program since 2014 with five grants totaling $75,600.
Their unique Low Income Senior Healthy Eating Program helps King County low-income senior participants purchase fresh fruits, vegetables, bread and other qualifying food items every week at the Des Moines Farmers Market through $10 in free market tokens.
