Our flagship garden at the Rescue Outreach Mission in Sanford is where Feed Hunger Now teaches families to grow their own food. Our aqua and hydroponic systems use recirculating water to grow more with less, and the food grown here goes to neighbors facing food insecurity across Greater Orlando.

VOLUNTEER ON SATURDAYS
Volunteer garden hours are Saturdays from 9:00 to 11:00 AM. Volunteers put in more than 1,850 hours in 2025, planting, harvesting and keeping the systems running.
WHERE THE HARVEST GOES
Produce grown in our gardens is donated through local partners, including Rescue Outreach Mission, the Coalition for the Homeless of Central Florida and the Picnic Project of Sanford. In 2025 our gardens supported more than 17,500 meals and donated over 1,000 pounds of fresh produce.
LOOKING FOR FOOD ASSISTANCE?
Feed Hunger Now is a garden education hub, not a food pantry, so we don’t hand out food at the garden. If you need food today, our distribution partners can help:
