Farmers Feeding Florida program made permanent as food costs rise in North Central Florida

A state initiative connecting Florida farmers with food banks has been made permanent, offering continued relief to North Central Florida residents struggling with rising grocery prices. The program, which began in 2010, was expanded into a statewide effort in July 2025, and its permanent status arrives at a moment of heightened need as the cost of goods continues to climb.
