On Nov. 26, Feeding the Gulf Coast will provide holiday meal boxes for each family that includes a turkey or ham and all the fixings for a Thanksgiving meal. UF/IFAS WFREC and Santa Rosa Farm Bureau will provide locally grown produce. This will also allow an opportunity to teach residents in the community about the economic, environmental and societal benefits of agriculture.
