WIC Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (FMNP)

Farmers Market Nutrition Program starts June 1^st!

Eligible WIC families will receive farmers’ market benefits to purchase fresh and unprocessed fruits, vegetables, eggs and cut herbs from authorized markets which participate in WIC Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program (FMNP). The Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program runs from June 1^st to November 30^th. 

Visit a farmers' market or certified farm stand near you and look for an FMNP Certified Farmer to redeem benefits for fresh fruits, vegetables, eggs and cut herbs. Visit www.CTGrown.gov/FarmersMarkets for a list of eligible markets. 

If you are new to WIC, be on the lookout for an eFMNP card in the mail or an email from noreply@solisystems.com with instructions on how to access the SoliMarket Shopper app.  If you received Farmers’ Market benefits last year you will use the SoliMarket Shopper app or if you received an eFMNP card last year you will use your existing card.
