The free produce and food giveaway is open to all Pinellas County residents.

LEALMAN – The Pinellas County Commission will join community partners to host a free produce and food distribution event in Lealman this Friday (Dec. 7).

The Farm Share event will begin at 9:30 a.m. at Lealman Connection Center, 3875 54th Ave. N. The giveaway will feature drive through and walk-up distribution of fruit, vegetables and other nutritious food. The event is scheduled to run until 11:30 a.m. or until items are passed out to attendees.  It is open to all Pinellas County residents.

The county’s involvement in the Farm Share program is part of a continuous effort to ensure public well-being by distributing healthy foods to citizens most in need. Anyone in need of assistance with grocery necessities is welcome to attend.

The commission and Farm Shareare working in partnership with several community organizations, including Florida Dream Center, the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Police Athletic League, Florida Blue, and the Lealman and Asian Neighborhood Family Center.

Farm Share is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the distribution of nutritious foods to those in need. It serves as a link between farmers with surplus produce and social service agencies in Florida and throughout the southeastern United States. Last year, Farm Share served more than 6 million Florida households and distributed 40 million pounds of food to needy families.
