The objectives of the FMNP are to:

  • Improve the nutrition of WIC participants
  • Increase North Carolina farmers' share of the food dollar
  • Help revitalize rural areas by increasing awareness and use of farmers' markets.

WIC FMNP benefits are available for WIC eligible pregnant, postpartum, partially breastfeeding and breastfeeding women and children 2 to 4 years old to obtain fresh fruits and vegetables at local farmers’ markets.
