WIC families can get $30 bonus coupons per visit when they spend a minimum of $5 of their WIC benefits at participating farmers’ markets. The coupons can be used for fresh fruits and vegetables. Families can receive this offer once per week at each participating market and visit multiple markets per week. The bonus dollars are while supplies last, and the amount is subject to change. Families will need the WIC card with a QR code on front to shop at a farmers’ market and get the $30 bonus coupons.
Here’s how it works:
- Shop with Your WIC Benefits: Shop at a farmers market below using your WIC card with a QR code, and use at least $5 of your cash value benefit for fruits and vegetables.
Look for the ‘WIC and Senior Benefits Welcome‘ sign to find farmers who accept the WIC card. - Get a Verification Ticket: Receive a verification ticket from the farmers and bring it to the information booth.
- Collect Matching Coupons: Receive your matching coupons. Coupons can only be used on fresh fruits and vegetables.

Coupons can be picked up from a participating farmers’ market. Coupons can be redeemed for fresh fruits and vegetables.
