WIC-Authorized Farmers

You can use your monthly WIC benefits to buy locally grown fruits, vegetables, and approved herbs from WIC-authorized farmers in Colorado. 

WIC-authorized farmers can sell produce at approved locations including farms, farmers’ markets, and roadside stands.

Individual farmers are approved, not entire farmers’ markets. If a WIC-authorized farmer is selling at a farmers’ market, you can only buy fruits and vegetables from the approved farmer.

Look for the WIC-approved farmer sign to find farmers who accept eWIC cards.

How to Shop

Your monthly cash value benefit for fruits and vegetables will be used for purchases with WIC-authorized farmers. Use your eWIC card and PIN to complete the purchase.  If your total is more than your WIC benefits, you can pay the difference with another form of payment.
