The UF/IFAS Extension Alachua County Office is pleased to announce the 2025 Peanut Butter Challenge.
2025 Peanut Butter Challenge – From Sept. 30 to Oct.31, 2025, Participants can bring unopened peanut butter jars to the UF/IFAS Extension Alachua County Office (22712 W. Newberry Road, Newberry) to help feed the hungry.
At the end of the collection period, the jars are tallied, bragging rights are awarded to counties collecting the most peanut butter, and the jars go to local food pantries just in time for the holiday season.
