Food Assistance in Wildwood, FL

Wildwood's two pantries split the month between them: Caring Hands at First Baptist on Hall Street distributes on the second and fourth Tuesdays, while St. Vincent de Paul's Our Mother of Mercy pantry on Barwick Street covers first-and-third-Wednesday mornings — together giving Sumter County's south end near-weekly coverage.

Caring Hands at First Baptist

Caring Hands at 307 Hall St operates the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month, 9:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m., offering food and clothing assistance — call (352) 748-2553. Volunteers staff Tuesdays more broadly for donations, and older listings show occasional Monday-evening windows, so a call confirms any extra dates.

SVdP's Wednesday Pantry

St. Vincent de Paul's Our Mother of Mercy pantry at 201 Barwick St distributes the 1st and 3rd Wednesday, 9 a.m.–noon — (352) 748-0778 — serving households across south Sumter County. Between the alternating Tuesday and Wednesday patterns, most weeks have one open distribution in Wildwood; Florida 211 and Sumter County resource guides track everything else, including options in The Villages.
