Big News: WIC Project FRESH, now called WIC Produce Connection, is changing. Beginning this year, the program is doing away with paper coupons and adding benefits directly onto the WIC EBT card. Due to this change, farmers markets will no longer be able to accept the benefits on behalf of the farmers that attend their markets. Instead, each farmer or grower must now apply directly on their own and obtain the ability to process the WIC EBT card either through a smartphone app or a POS device. To sign up as a grower in the program, please email mdhhs-produceconnection@michigan.gov. If you have additional questions about these changes, please email foodaccess@mifma.org.
The team at WIC Produce Connection will also be hosting several upcoming virtual Town Hall Meetings to help answer questions and support growers who are interested in applying for the upcoming season. Registration is NOT required to attend, dates, times, and login information is below.
Virtual Town Hall Meetings will be hosted using Microsoft Teams
