Bellyful
A partnership with
Dedicated to helping expecting mothers on the USDA's Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) and Medicaid recipients.
WIC and Medicaid recipients get fresh, local produce from family farms that support organic practices, strengthening our regional food systems.
In 2024
21 Mothers were given fresh local produce
1,500 Pounds (298 boxes) of vegetables were delivered
"The Bellyfull program was a lifesaver for my family in more ways than one. I had a severe dip in milk supply, and I heard of Bellyfull. The veggies provided are fresh, crisp, and the portion sizes are well beyond expectations. A constant supply of vegetables, complemented by my water intake, indeed played a vital role in restoring my milk supply. As a mom to a newborn struggling with postpartum, I don't know what I would have done over the summer without Bellyfull. Such an amazing experience!”
