Purdue Extension Nutrition Education Program hosting in-person sign-up events to help farmers register for benefits at farmers markets and farm stands

MIAMI COUNTY, IN- The Purdue Extension Nutrition Education Program is hosting several in-person sign-up events to help farmers register to receive WIC and Senior FMNP benefits electronically at farmers markets and farm stands. Since Indiana's WIC and Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program is now IN eFMNP, they encourage farmers to register to accept these benefits. Benefits are paid directly to the farmers. To participate in 2025, farmers must register online or at one of the in-person events. Please bring your tax ID number/EIN and a voided check (needed for banking information). The Indiana Department of Health (IDOH) will be at these sign-up events to explain the process and help get farmers registered. MarketLink will get you the TotilPay Go App to accept eFMNP this summer. Market managers are welcome attend to learn about the way WIC and Senior FMNP is being offered at farmers markets this summer.
