Thanks to IRMC's Food and Nutrition Department, who provided samples and recipes for two fresh salsas, using ingredients you can find at the market.
On Saturday, we welcomed WIC, as well as the Power Up Nutrition Program, who provided another recipe for dilly dip that is delicious with many of your favorite fresh market veggies!
This week, we continue the trend at our Wednesday market.
WIC staff will be on hand to assist clients in receiving and redeeming vouchers for the Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (FMNP), which are accepted by many of our vendors.
They share the space with the Power Up Nutrition Education Program. Power-up provides no-cost nutrition education, recipes, and food demonstrations and tastings to highlight local produce.
Remember, even though we do not accept credit, debit, and EBT cards on Wednesdays, you can still spend market tokens at participating vendors if you have them!
