Mississippi is one of the original states to participate in USDA’s Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP). The Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program provides funds for schools to provide free servings of fresh fruits and fresh vegetables throughout the day to Mississippi students. The FFVP shows children that fresh fruits and vegetables are healthy and tasty alternatives to snacks high in fat, sugar, or salt.
To view the webinar from 09/08/2017 regarding filing FFV claims, please click the link below. You will be asked to enter your name and email before viewing the webinar.
All claims for FFVP reimbursement must be entered in the online Mississippi Application and Payment System (MARS)
