TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - Farm Share will be back Thursday with more than 13,000 pounds of food to pass out to the community.

Starting at 8 a.m., the Leon County Sheriff's Office will be passing out fresh fruits and vegetables from farmers throughout the area. They will also have cereal, breakfast sandwiches and much more.

The event will be held in the parking lot between the Department of Health and the Leon County Sheriff's Office on Municipal Way.

"The really great thing about this is, that since the Leon County Sheriff's Office has started this partnership with Farm Share, we've seen more and more sheriff's offices across the state now partnering with Farm Share and doing the same outreach and we believe that's important," said Shonda Knight of the Leon County Sheriff's Office.

Knight also says this will be a drive-thru, or walk up service for those without transportation.
