Stock the Stocking!
This Christmas help us Stock the Stocking! Starting November 27th through December 17th, we will be handing out stockings with a wish list of healthy, easy to open food items to feed the kids over the holiday break. With your help we can fill enough stockings to keep them from missing over 20 meals. This time of year is tough for the kids in our program as they lack access to reliable food sources. Gather your family and friends and help us Stock the Stocking! FFT has several convenient locations to pick up and drop off the stockings. If you have any questions email support@fftfl.org
Pick Up and Drop Off Locations:
- Santa Rosa Beach Pantry, Tuesday-Thursday 8:30AM-4PM
- Destin Pantry, Tuesday & Wed 8:30AM-4:30PM
- Taylor Allen Properties (1219 Airport Rd, Destin), Mon-Thurs. 9AM-4PM
- Courtyard by Marriott Sandestin (100 Grand Blvd, Mirarmar Beach) Mon-Fri. 9AM-4PM

Planting In The Garden With The Sonder Project
We love partnering with the Sonder Project for a garden upgrade in Destin and planting for the winter. We have two gardens (one in Destin and the other on the Walton Academy Campus) and students in our kitchen program and volunteers help us to maintain these gardens. The vegetables we grow are used in the kitchen classes and support our seasonal programs. We're working to continue making our programs sustainable, and our gardens are helping to make this happen!

The Sonder Project in the FFT Garden
This year we have partnered with The Sonder Project to work on our Full Circle garden located at our Destin pantry. The Sonder Project's goal is to support local organizations combatting hunger, and raise awareness around issues related to food security, clean water and education. They are providing us with the materials to maintain a successful garden in which we will use what is grown in our Full Circle kitchen. We are delighted to have The Sonder Project work in the garden and look forward to growing fresh vegetables, herbs and fruits.
