Summer Resources for Families
Free Summer Meals:
Georgia WIC Farmers Market
The Farmer’s Market is open to all WIC participants. Each participant enrolled in WIC will receive $30 in fruits and vegetables. For example, if a family has five children enrolled in WIC, they will receive $150.00 in fruits and vegetables. They are also provided information on how to prepare and store them since they are receiving so much at one time.
