FMNP FARMER CERTIFICATION MEETINGS, March 9 and March 24
All fruit, vegetable, and honey producers selling at Certified Connecticut Grown Farmers’ Markets must be certified with the Connecticut Department of Agriculture’s Farmers Market Nutrition Program (FMNP). To be certified, producers must attend a certification meeting.
The certification allows farms to accept the FMNP checks for fresh fruits, vegetables, and honey from WIC clients and income-eligible seniors over the age of 60. Join us to get your certification, learn more about available grant funding for your farm, and accepting SNAP to expand your sales.
Additional meeting dates have been added. Below is the current list of meeting dates which will all be held virtually via Microsoft Teams.
- Wednesday, March 9, 2021 from 8 a.m. – 10 a.m.
- Wednesday, March 24, 2021 from 3 p.m. – 5 p.m.
