Food Stamps Food stamps help you pay for groceries. You may be eligible for food stamps if you have limited income and resources. You can apply for food stamps at your local social welfare. Food Coops Food coops sell high quality foods at reasonable prices in a storefront location. Many coops charge a nominal membership fee, but most welcome non-members to shop.
Some coops offer senior citizen discounts.
Food and Nutrition Extension Specialists offer pamphlets and courses in food buying, nutrition, food safety, production and preservation.
