Farm Share and Representative Mike Hill Host Free Food Distribution for Pensacola Area Needy Families

Pensacola, FL – Farm Share is partnering with Representative Mike Hill to sponsor a free food distribution on Friday, May 15th, 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., at Brownsville Assembly of God, located at 3100 West De Soto Street, Pensacola, FL 32505.
Families in need of nutritious food will be provided Farm Share food bags free of charge. Each household will receive a variety of fresh produce that is in season, along with other nutritious food.

Last year alone, Farm Share distributed more than 23.4 million pounds of food to hungry families, children, seniors and veterans, serving more than one million Florida households. Farm Share is the largest fresh produce program in Florida and the only statewide and local food bank program that does not charge a fee for any food it provides to community organizations.

Rep. Hill said, “I am grateful for the opportunity to work with Farm Share again to bring much needed resources to those in our community who are in need, such as canned goods, pastas, and fresh fruits and vegetables. We have had such a tremendous response from our community. We would never have the ability to serve as many people as we have without the continued support from local churches and volunteers from the local bases and organizations throughout Pensacola. I’m looking forward to another successful distribution.”
