Winter Produce Social Media Toolkit

The California Department of Public Health/Women, Infants and Children Division (CDPH/WIC) has developed a social media toolkit for produce that is in season during the winter. The toolkit is based on the seasonal produce guide published by the United States Department of Agriculture.

Purchasing fresh produce in season costs less and helps WIC families get more out of the temporary increase to their Fruits and Vegetables Benefit. The increased benefit amount levels continue to be $24/month for children, $43/month for pregnant and postpartum individuals, and $47/month for breastfeeding individuals.

More information on the temporary increase to the Fruits and Vegetables Benefit can be found here: Fruits and Vegetables Benefit Increase webpage.
