Peanut Butter Collection Concludes

Another Successful Peanut Butter Collection Drive!

Thanks to the efforts of local schools, businesses, the Florida Peanut Producers Association, and the UF/IFAS Jackson County Extension Office, Jackson County donated another load of peanut butter to Backpacks for Kids. A total of 202 jars, equating to 3920 ounces or 245 pounds, was collected by Campbelton Farm Service, Dayspring Christian Academy, Malone School, and McCoy’s, who by the way also managed to get some grape jelly thrown in too!

The Florida Peanut Producers Association will be adding 19 flats of peanut butter to the total amount collected from Jackson County. Thanks so much to everyone who helped make this effort a success!
