Project Open Hand

Meals & Nutrition · Tennessee · Free

Pioneer in medically tailored meals for seniors and people with serious illness. Useful for older adults living alone, recovering from a hospital stay, or managing diet-controlled conditions like diabetes or kidney disease. Most programs ask for a suggested donation but turn no one away based on inability to pay. Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program coupons (~$50/season) work at participating farmers markets and CSAs. Free of charge — no eligibility paperwork required to call or browse.
