July is National Watermelon Month

July is National Watermelon Month.  Did you know that watermelon is as nutritious as it is delicious?  This sweet treat is packed with a disease-fighting antioxidant called lycopene as well as vitamins A and C.  It’s also 92% water, so it’s a tasty way to hydrate on a hot day.  

The Guilford County WIC Program is now issuing Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) coupons.  You can use the FMNP coupons to buy fruits and vegetables at authorized local farmers’ markets.  Pregnant, postpartum women, and children ages 2 through 4 who are active on WIC are eligible to receive $30 worth of coupons.  Give your WIC office a call if you are interested.  336-641-3214 (Greensboro) 336-641-7571 (High Point) For more information, visit our website www.guilfordcountync.gov/wic.

Enjoy this summer favorite with your FMNP coupons!
