On Friday, November 16, 2012, the University of Florida IFAS – Holmes County Extension Office officially ended the Holmes County Peanut Butter Challenge with a total of 65 pounds of peanut butter! Niki Crawson, Holmes County 4-H Agent, and Judy Corbus, Holmes County FCS Agent, packed up the nutritious donation and delivered it to HCMA Ministry Center & Thrift Store located in Bonifay on Hwy 90 W, to help local families in need.

BES 1^st Grade classrooms were a large part of the collection drive this year! Special thanks to all 1^st grade students and their teachers for supporting this project. Mrs. Taylor’s class held the title of most jars collected and will be celebrating their community support win with a pizza party!

On behalf of the University of Florida IFAS – Holmes County Extension, thank you to all the local citizens who participated in the peanut butter drive to support local families in need and local peanut producers!
