This file contains WIC Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program grant amounts by state agency. The table displays data for the most recent fiscal years.
In September 2016, FNS awarded Team Nutrition Training Grants to 14 state agencies that administer the USDA’s NSLP, SBP and CACFP. This TNTG cohort was different than previous cohorts because, for the first time, grantees were asked to outline a plan to evaluate some or all of the interventions they would implement with grant funding.
The Farm to School Grantee Report analyzes baseline, progress and final reports submitted to FNS by 365 grantees who received Farm to School grant awards in fiscal years 2013–2017.
FNS awards grants, on a competitive basis, to test innovative projects that have the potential to improve and enhance the WIC program. Grants have traditionally been awarded to support state agencies in their efforts to streamline WIC services, delivery quality nutrition education to WIC participants, and improve customer service.
