Pinellas County Commission To Host Free Fresh Food Giveaway

PINELLAS PARK, FL — As part of countywide effort to meet the growing need for food assistance, the Pinellas County Board of County Commissioners is working with community partners to host a free fresh food distribution event on Friday, June 10, in Pinellas Park.

The event will begin at 9 a.m. at England Brother Park, 5010 81st Ave. N. in Pinellas Park. Distribution will be drive-thru only, and the event will run until 11 a.m., or while supplies last.

The county’s partnership with St. Pete Free Clinic is part of a continuous effort to ensure public well-being by distributing healthy foods to residents most in need. Anyone in need of assistance with grocery necessities is welcome to attend.

With food insecurity on the rise in the community, St. Pete Free Clinic is working to ensure all food- and nutrition-insecure areas in the county have consistent access to quality food.

SPFC offers expanded locations, hours and drive-through options with additional mobile pantries in underserved areas in mid and north Pinellas County.

The county commission is partnering with St. Pete Free Clinic, the city of Pinellas Park, the Pinellas Park Police Department and the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office.
