The bill proposes the establishment of a Produce Rx pilot program aimed at improving public health through nutrition. It appropriates a total of $410,300 from the general fund for the fiscal years 2026 and 2027 to the commissioner of health. This funding is designated for a grant to the city of Minneapolis to support and expand its existing produce prescription program, known as Produce Rx, which will be implemented at ten federally qualified health centers and school-based clinics located in Hennepin and Olmsted Counties.

Additionally, the bill sets a base appropriation of $410,300 for the fiscal years 2028, 2029, and 2030, while indicating that there will be no funding allocated for fiscal year 2031. This initiative aims to enhance access to fresh produce for individuals in need, thereby promoting healthier eating habits and addressing public health concerns related to nutrition.
