Committed To Ending Hunger Our Community Table is a Christ-centered, faith-based ministry uniting churches and community members to serve families in need.

About Our Community Table – Okeechobee, FL

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about what Our Community Table is doing in our local communities and beyond. What began in Martin County on April 10, 2020, has grown into a recognized movement focused on fighting food poverty. We believe no one should ever have to go without a meal on a Saturday—or any day of the week. To further this mission

, we’ve launched the End Hunger Campaign in Okeechobee County to raise awareness and open eyes to the very real and urgent needs of our neighbors.

Ministry Vision

Our vision is to ensure no one goes without a meal. We’ve grown from one meal site to 12 active stations across Martin County (Stuart, Hobe Sound, Indiantown), and now we are expanding into Okeechobee.

🎉 Join us as we celebrate our Okeechobee launch on June 7, 2025, with the opening of our first distribution station in the county!

Future Expansion Plans
• Establish a permanent home base facility
• Launch a Clothing Closet for those in need
• Operate a Mobile Food Pantry
• Acquire transport vans for food deliveries
• Support emergency relief efforts
• Provide meeting rooms and counseling spaces
• Facilitate small group Bible studies
• Host catering events to raise awareness
• Collaborate with other nonprofits to expand community outreach

Ministry Growth

From serving 124 meals in April 2020 to now delivering 1,900+ meals each week in Martin County, Our Community Table continues to grow—with over 400 active volunteers serving regularly. Our volunteer family includes people of all backgrounds—from children learning to give back, to those with physical or mental challenges finding purpose in service.

⸻

Food Costs and Challenges

Due to rising food prices and an increase in distribution locations, our weekly food costs now average $3,000–$3,200. We face ongoing supply challenges but remain faithful—trusting God to provide for our continued growth, especially as we begin serving here in Okeechobee.

🎉 OKEECHOBEE COUNTY – 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY 🎉

One year ago, Our Community Table launched in Okeechobee County with a simple mission:

❤️ No one should go hungry.

What started on June 7, 2025, has grown into a movement of volunteers, churches, businesses, and community members coming together to make a difference.

Today, we celebrate an incredible milestone:

🥘 More than 31,000 meals served.

But this celebration is about more than a number.

It's about the families who found hope.
It's about the volunteers who faithfully show up every Saturday.
It's about a community that cares for its neighbors.

A special thank you to Ben and Amanda Greene for their leadership, dedication, and servant hearts. Through their commitment and the support of countless volunteers, lives are being impacted every week throughout Okeechobee County.

To every volunteer, donor, church partner, and supporter...

THANK YOU.

Together, we've served 31,000 meals.

Together, we've touched countless lives.

And together, we're just getting started.

What If It Was You?

What if you were working full-time and still struggling to put food on the table?

What if your children depended on you, but every month seemed harder than the last?

Bills piling up.
Groceries costing more.
Rent increasing.
Gas prices rising.

What many people don't see are the families quietly struggling right here in our own community.

Food insecurity isn't happening somewhere else.

It's happening right here in Martin County.

Watch this video and help us raise awareness for the thousands of families facing these challenges every day.

Together, we can make a difference.
Together, we can bring hope.
Together, we can help end hunger.
