Peanut Butter Drive Continues

November 20, 2015

The Escambia County Extension office, along with the University of Florida Institute of Food & Agricultural Sciences and the Florida Peanut Producer Association are collecting peanut butter now through next week to help take a bite out of hunger.

The groups are accepting donations of unopened jars of peanut butter to be donated to local food pantries during Farm-City Week.

Unopened jars of peanut butter of any brand can be dropped off until November 25 at any of the following locations:

Escambia County

  • Escambia County Extension Office, 3740 Stefani Road, Cantonment
  • Escambia County Farm Bureau, 153 Highway 97, Molino
  • Escambia County Public Safety, 6575 North W Street
