The Eat³ Campaign:
Eat Well, Eat Local, Eat Together
Do you want new meal ideas to help your family eat well?
Do you want to support your community by eating locally?
Do you want to enjoy the benefits of eating together as a family?
Then try Eat³!
On this site you’ll find recipes, tips for using local foods for wholesome, tasty meals your family can enjoy together.
Every month during harvest season, we feature one meal in local media, events and farmer’s markets in participating communities across New York. In addition, health and nutrition educators in local communities will include Eat³ information in their Farmers’ Market Nutrition Education programs.
Now’s the time to use your FMNP checks to Eat³!
The WIC Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program increases access among participants of the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children, (WIC) to fresh, locally grown fruits and vegetables. Special FMNP checks provide additional food resources to purchase fresh produce at their local farmers markets.
The seasonal Eat³ meals featured below provide delicious, easy to prepare ideas for using foods purchased at the farmers market.
