Wapello County Farmers Market Ottumwa

It is that time of year to start thinking about certifying for vendors of farmers markets so you will be able to accept FMNP vouchers. This will allow vendors that are selling vegetable, fruit, nuts and honey to accept these vouchers. I have attached a schedule of dates for this training.
The WCFM is looking for vendors the the upcoming market 2026 market season which has a starting date of June 1st. If you have any questions I can be contacted at 64-680-6216.
