Each family will receive one WIC Card for all of their family's food benefits. The WIC Card provides a more convenient way for families to show for WIC foods and provides flexibility to get just what they need at each shopping trip. In addition, families will not lose their WIC food benefits if their WIC Card is lost, stolen or damaged.
Farmers Market Nutrition Program
In addition to receiving WIC checks, participants have the opportunity to receive additional checks to redeem at WIC-authorized Certified Farmers Markets to buy locally-grown fresh fruit and vegetables. The checks are given out in the summer months in limited amounts to selected WIC sites.
