JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – FarmShare and other local businesses are doing their part to make sure no one in Northeast Florida goes hungry with drive-thru food distribution events around the area.
Farm Shares said 816 families picked up more than 50,000 pounds of produce, meat and canned goods within three hours at the drive-thru event.
Costco pitched in by donating 75 Christmas trees that will be given out in addition to the food.
They can get enough food to last an entire week, and they can come back the next week,” said Green.
FarmShare will also hold a food distribution drive-thru event beginning at 9 a.m. Dec. 8 at the Ponce De Leon Mall at 2121 U.S. 1 in St. Augustine.
