The Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) was established to provide nutritious commodities to help State and local agencies supplement food resources of the low-income elderly. Through local agencies, each participant receives a monthly package of commodities, based on food package guide rates developed by the United States Department of Agriculture, Food and Nutrition Services (FNS). Food packages include such nutritious foods as milk, cereal, juices, canned fruits and vegetables, canned meat and other non-meat protein items, and grain products such as pasta or rice.

The Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) works to improve the health of low-income senior adults age 60 years and over by supplementing their diets with nutritious USDA foods. The CSFP program is administered through the Food and Nutrition Service of the USDA.

The Golden Triangle Planning and Development District hosted Coffee with a Cop this morning.  We had a great turnout, and enjoyed meeting and getting to know our local law enforcement officers.  We also had a bittersweet afternoon celebrating loan officer Jimmy Cole’s retirement after 22 years of service to the PDD.  We had over 150 well-wishers, current and former colleagues attend a party in his honor.  

We appreciate the opportunity to partner with the United Way of North Central Mississippi to distribute fans in the counties of Winston, Webster, Choctaw and Oktibbeha.
