Farmer's Market Nutrition Program

What is the Farmer's Market Nutrition Program?

The WIC FMNP provides a one-time food benefit per growing season to WIC families. Each family receives checks that are redeemed at local farmers’ markets from June through October. Approximately 1,000 farmers currently participate in this program. Farmers' Market checks are distributed in June.

The goals of the Wisconsin WIC Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) are:

to provide WIC participants with checks to purchase locally-grown fresh fruits, vegetables and herbs at farmers' markets;
to provide WIC participants with nutrition education and the resources to encourage the consumption of fresh fruits, vegetables and herbs; and
to increase the awareness and utilization of farmers' markets.

Resources

The WIC FMNP has many resources available to learn how to shop for, prepare and store fresh fruits , vegetables, and herbs.

Farmers' market locations and other information is available by contacting NHA. To view the statewide directory of WIC Offices listed by county, access the WIC Office Directory.
