The Story

How much time do you spend grocery shopping a week? How long does it take to find all of the items you need and leave without forgetting something?… now imagine you have six kids in tow. This was the reality for our families before “Pantry Partners” began.

In 2019, a Jacksonville area native and local catering company owner felt called to give to those less fortunate. He was unsure what that meant, but when he found Seamark Ranch he found a way to serve not only the children, but the houseparents living on the Ranch.

Each week he complies an extensive food order and has spent countless weekends going up and down the Publix isles shopping to stock the pantry. He buys everything from baking powder to pop tarts so the houseparents have an accessible “grocery store” to “shop” from on property.
