Are you a farmer who’d like to accept WIC as a form of payment for your produce? You must complete a mandatory training session by The Rhode Island Farmers Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) coming up March 16th! Farmers that already accept WIC are not required to, but are encouraged to attend as a refresher.
The Rhode Island Farmers Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) has scheduled a training session for all new and existing farmers interested in participating in the WIC FMNP Program. As a requirement for the WIC FMNP Farmer Application procedure and/or your Farmer Participation Agreement farmers and farmers market managers are required to attend a training prior to being approved to accept WIC. Such market training is also required by federal regulations.
