Farm Direct
Spanish Russian
The Farm Direct Nutrition Program is a seasonal program we offer by providing a 1 time benefit of checks for each individual WIC participant during the summer to buy fresh fruit, vegetables, and cut herbs from local area farmers. These checks are in addition to the monthly food benefits already provided on your eWIC card. Some limitations apply.
