🥬🫜 Farmers Market season is here! 🫜🥬

We had a great time at the opening day of the Sheboygan County Interfaith Organization (SCIO) Farmers Market! Check out some photos from the market and all the fresh, local produce available this season.

Don't forget, WIC Farmers Market checks can be used to purchase Wisconsin-grown fruits and vegetables at any approved farmers market. Just look for the yellow WIC Farmers Market sign to find participating vendors (the sign is on our handout in one of the photos)

We hope to see you at a market this summer! 🍓🌽🥒🍅

Did you know there’s something you can do to help prevent your baby from developing food allergies? Evidence shows that introducing of major food allergens early can significantly lower the risk of food allergies among children. 💡

You can introduce safely food allergens at the same time you start to offer other solid foods to your baby by taking steps like:
🔹 Paying attention to timing: Start offering food allergens to your baby when they are developmentally ready, around 4 to 6 months, when other solids are introduced.
🔹 Avoiding choking risks: Baby’s first foods should always be in baby friendly forms.
🔹 Being consistent: Any progress is a great start! The key is to be consistent and gradually increase the amount of each allergen they eat.
🔹 Offering lots of variety: While you don’t want to offer two new foods in the same meal, giving your baby a chance to try lots of different foods over time helps them experience different flavors, textures, and nutrients.
🔹 Keeping your healthcare and WIC team in the loop: Talk to your healthcare team and WIC clinic staff about food allergies early, even at your 1- or 3-month appointments or at WIC check-ins! They are here to support you with your feeding plans.
