FMNP checks come from the WIC office; Market Match is given at the market’s information booth.* ## What WIC FMNP and Market Match is, in one paragraph Two programs pay for produce at California farmers’ markets. The WIC Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) is a federal program for WIC participants: the WIC office gives a booklet of checks for authorized farmers, on top of regular WIC benefits, and from the 2025 season the California WIC Card itself works at authorized markets through a QR code. Market Match is California’s incentive for CalFresh shoppers, run by the Ecology Center with community partners: CalFresh dollars spent at a participating market are matched for fruits and vegetables. Market Match needs no application. ```widget { "type": "stat", "value": "$30 a season; up to $15 matched", "label": "WIC FMNP: three $10 checks per household, 1 May to 30 November (CDPH, rule:fmnp_ca_30). Market Match: most markets match CalFresh up to $15 (Ecology Center, rule:mm_cap_15)" } ``` ## Who may qualify **WIC FMNP**: a person currently on WIC or on the WIC waiting list, except infants 4 months old or younger (rule:fmnp_who). The state may limit it to certain areas or priority groups (rule:fmnp_state_limits). **Market Match**: anyone paying with CalFresh at a participating farmers’ market or farm-direct site (rule:mm_who). | Program | Who | What | When | |---|---|---|---| | WIC FMNP | WIC participants | Three $10 checks, $30 a season (rule:fmnp_ca_30) | 1 May to 30 November (rule:fmnp_season) | | WIC Card at markets | WIC participants | The monthly Fruits and Vegetables Benefit, by QR code (rule:wic_card_qr) | Year-round, at authorized farmers | | Market Match | CalFresh shoppers | Dollar-for-dollar match, usually up to $15 (rule:mm_dollar, rule:mm_cap_15); 50% off at farm stands (rule:mm_farm_stand) | Market days | ## What the model on this page can do for you This article is also the context of a model you can text or chat with. The buttons under the title open Messages with a note already written, or a chat on this page. The model has read this exact page: the rules above with their source ids, the procedure below, and the other programs the same facts open. It asks for one or two facts at a time, starting with whether you are on WIC and whether you have CalFresh, tells you which rules you pass and which it cannot decide, names the programs you may also qualify for, and gives the exact next step. It has no tools: it cannot apply for you, and it says so. Every message is kept on this build's Ledger. A screening here is a screening, not a decision. The WIC office or the market decides. ## How to apply, and what happens after **FMNP checks** come from the local WIC office ([MyFamily.WIC.ca.gov](https://myfamily.wic.ca.gov/Home/FarmersMarkets)). **Market Match**: go to the market’s information booth, swipe the CalFresh EBT card for the amount you choose, and receive tokens plus the match (rule:mm_booth); find a site with the [Farmers’ Market Finder](https://ecologycenter.org/fmfinder/). | Stage | What happens | Deadline | What loses people the benefit | |---|---|---|---| | Screen | On WIC? Have CalFresh? | Minutes | Not knowing Market Match exists | | Get | FMNP checks at the WIC office; Market Match tokens at the booth | FMNP during the season | Not asking | | Spend | Authorized farmers; tokens on fruits, vegetables, herbs and plant starts (rule:mm_spend) | FMNP by 30 November | Checks expiring | | Appeal | FMNP disqualification or suspension can be appealed (rule:fmnp_appeal) | Not stated | UNKNOWN | ```widget { "type": "json", "title": "The procedure, stage by stage, as data", "ref": "#facts.procedure.stages", "open_depth": 1 } ``` ## The same facts open other programs The facts these programs ask for, WIC status and CalFresh status, are the facts that open: - **WIC (Women, Infants & Children) (B003)**: FMNP is only for WIC participants; the WIC Card’s Fruits and Vegetables Benefit also works at authorized markets. [[california-wic]] - **CalFresh (SNAP) (B001)**: Market Match matches CalFresh dollars spent at participating markets. [[california-calfresh]] - **Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (B008)**: The same CDPH-authorized farmers take the $50 senior farmers’ market card. [[california-senior-farmers-market-nutrition]] Those connections are read from [[california-benefits-graph|the California benefits graph]], the object that holds all 80 programs, the life events that trigger them and the facts they share. ```widget { "type": "json", "title": "What this article shares with the graph", "ref": "#facts.ontology", "open_depth": 2 } ``` ## How this page works This page is one JSON object. The page, the Markdown and the machine copy at [/a/california-wic-fmnp-market-match.json](https://miscsubjects.com/a/california-wic-fmnp-market-match.json) are three views of it. Its `facts` carry the article's identity and jurisdiction, the procedure with its stages, every rule with its source id and verification status, the fields a screening asks for with their canonical fact names, the ontology edges into the benefits graph, the declared actions, the model's instructions, and the permissions the model has (none). The model's context is served separately at [/a/california-wic-fmnp-market-match/context](https://miscsubjects.com/a/california-wic-fmnp-market-match/context): the same object, projected for a model, so there is one source of truth for the reader and the machine. What is saved: a thread per phone number that texts, holding which articles it asked about, how many messages, and the facts it stated, so a person who comes back continues rather than restarts. The same phone number is treated as the same thread; a browser is never shown another phone's thread, and signing in is required before anything private crosses from text to screen. Every message, in either direction, is a row on this build's Ledger. Figures carry their status in `facts.rules[].status`. The $30 FMNP booklet, the May to November season, the federal $10 to $30 range, the WIC Card at markets, and Market Match’s dollar-for-dollar match up to a usual $15 were fetched and verified on 9 October 2026. Market Match facts come from the Ecology Center, the nonprofit that runs it; no state agency page fetched states them. The FMNP appeal deadline and any renewal or reporting rule are UNKNOWN. ## Official addresses - WIC at farmers’ markets: [MyFamily.WIC.ca.gov: Shop with WIC at the farmers’ market](https://myfamily.wic.ca.gov/Home/FarmersMarkets); California WIC 1-800-852-5770 (rule:wic_phone) - WIC FMNP in California: [CDPH WIC Farmers’ Markets](https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CFH/DWICSN/Pages/FarmersMarkets.aspx) - Market Match: [marketmatch.org](https://marketmatch.org/) and the [Farmers’ Market Finder](https://ecologycenter.org/fmfinder/) - The federal program: [FNA WIC FMNP](https://www.fna.usda.gov/fmnp/wic-farmers-market-nutrition-program) and [7 CFR part 248](https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-7/subtitle-B/chapter-II/subchapter-A/part-248) ## Facts ```json { "measured_at": "2026-10-09T13:58:00Z", "article": { "id": "wic-fmnp-market-match-ca", "slug": "california-wic-fmnp-market-match", "program_id": "B071", "jurisdiction": "US-CA", "aliases": [ "WIC FMNP", "WIC Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program", "farmers market checks", "Market Match", "California Market Match", "CalFresh match", "Fruits and Vegetables Benefit at farmers’ markets" ], "schema_version": "jarticle/1 + benefit-article/1 (these facts)" }, "procedure": { "id": "proc:apply_wic_fmnp_market_match_ca", "type": "procedure", "program_id": "B071", "authority": "USDA Food and Nutrition Administration (FMNP grant and rules), California Department of Public Health WIC Division (FMNP and WIC Card at markets), Ecology Center and over 50 community partners (Market Match)", "outcome": "$30 of WIC FMNP checks per season and the WIC Card usable at authorized markets; for CalFresh shoppers, a dollar-for-dollar match on produce, usually up to $15", "apply_at": "https://myfamily.wic.ca.gov/Home/FarmersMarkets", "stages": [ { "id": "stage:discover", "order": 1, "name": "Discover", "what_happens": "A WIC family learns that farmers’ market checks and the WIC Card work at authorized markets; a CalFresh shopper learns that Market Match doubles CalFresh spending on produce", "who_acts": "Household / WIC clinic / market", "timeline": "Before or during the market season", "evidence": "None", "failure_mode": "Not knowing the market booth gives Market Match", "model_role": "Name the nearest participating market", "automation_class": "A" }, { "id": "stage:screen_eligibility", "order": 2, "name": "Screen eligibility", "what_happens": "FMNP: on WIC or the WIC waiting list, not an infant 4 months or younger (rule:fmnp_who).
