Manhattan's annual Fresh Food for Seniors program returns for its 11th year this summer.
Several people stopped by Wednesday to pick up their bags at the Goddard Riverside Older Adult Center at Columbus Avenue and 88th Street.
"I think the program is fabulous. I love fresh fruits and vegetables. They're very reasonable, they're sorted well, and I just love the whole program and I'm grateful for it," Manhattan resident Jeanne Anne Karfo said. The pay-as-you-go program began under Gale Brewer when she was Manhattan borough president. It runs through Nov. 8.
