Coconut Palm K8 Academy is a K-8 school located in Homestead, Florida. We have a community refrigerator & food pantry that we use to serve our Project UpStart students and their families (students and families living in parks, cars, shelters, hotels, or doubled-up). We rely on donations from the local community to keep our fridge and pantry stocked.

Want an email when this food pantry updates their hours or other information?
We can arrange to have the food picked up, or if you prefer to deliver, please call before you come. Our visitor entrance is located next to the teacher parking lot.
ProducePedia
ProducePedia is a free resource that covers the types of fresh produce that can be delivered to food pantries. Each entry includes information on color, taste, and possible uses. People unfamiliar with the vegetable or fruit will learn how to use it, and those who are familiar with it still might learn a fun fact or two!
The Cooperative Extension sites have a wealth of information for any backyard gardener. Once you go to the site (each one if very different from the others) look for a link for “homes and gardens”, “landscape”, “consumer horticulture”, etc. to find information on improving your backyard garden. Neighboring state sites may offer information your own state’s site lacks.
