\nIf you haven\u2019t received your Farmers\u2019 Market checks for 2006, this is your last chance to obtain them. The Farmers\u2019 Market Nutrition program allows each eligible individual to receive four $5 checks, for a total of $20 per person.

If you are 60 or over, a resident of Blair County and had a total income for 2005 of $18,130 or under for an individual, or $24,420 or under for a couple, you are eligible.
