Fruit and Vegetable Prescription Program (FVRx)
The FVRx program at Aspirus is going into its 8th year. Reports on Wisconsin’s health status show that we all have room for improvement when it comes to fruit and vegetable consumption. Eating at least 5 cups a day of fruits and veggies is an effective way to prevent type 2 diabetes, heart disease and certain types of cancer.This program is designed so that health care providers and staff can help eligible patients eat more fruits and veggies by using local resources, in particular, local farmers’ markets.​Come to our market to redeem FVRx program tokens!​Go to: https://www.aspirus.org/fvrx-program for more information!

Swipe your Credit/Debit Card at our market
Forgot cash? Some of our vendors do not accept credit/debit cards. You can pay a nominal fee of $2 (which covers our transaction fees) and get tokens to spend with any vendors at our market.
