The USDA’s Food and Nutrition Services (FNS) administers The Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP) at the federal level. At the State level, the FFVP is administered by the State Agency (OSSE), housed under Wellness and Nutrition Services, School Programs. Selected schools in the District of Columbia receive reimbursement for fresh fruits and vegetables made available, free of cost, to students during the school day. The FFVP is a competitive enrollment process, which should be applied for annually.
