Free Ice Cream Today

Patch is on a mission to collect one ton of food for Feeding America Tampa Bay and we need your help!

On Thursday, we'll be driving our big green Patch RV through Palm Harbor collecting your non-perishable food donations.

If you stop by and donate a can of food, we'll thank you with a big Patch smile and lotsa great freebies throughout the day!

7-9 a.m.- (33180 U.S. 19) 

Bring us a non-perishable food donation and the Lucky Dill Deli will treat you to a free cup of coffee. You can take the coffee with you "to go" or enjoy it inside with breakfast. We'll also give ya a free super cool eco-friendly Patch water bottle as a souvenir. Now isn't that Patch-tastic?

12-2 p.m.- Food Truck Rally at the (at the corner of Curlew & Belcher Rds) 

The food trucks at this new lunchtime hangout are making room for our big green Patch RV! The first 50 people who bring us a non-perishable food donation will get a free trip through our ice cream sundae bar. We'll be dishing up yummy Laughing Cow ice cream from our pals at the . Who says you can't eat dessert first? When you finish your ice cream sundae, maybe you'll want to buy yourself lunch at one of the food trucks?

4:30- 7 p.m.- Fantastic Family Fun at (formerly known as the Palm Harbor Community Activity Center) 

For each non-perishable food donation you bring, Patch will give you one bingo card for our first-ever "Shop Local Bingo" game. Patch is a big supporter of our community and our local businesses, which play such a big role here in Palm Harbor. We're offering up some nifty gift cards from Palm Harbor businesses, so you can shop local.

Our "Shop Local" bingo games will be held at-

• 5 p.m.
• 6 p.m.
• 6:30 p.m.

Want more ice cream? The first 50 people who bring us a non-perishable food donation will also get a trip through our ice cream sundae bar. And, don't worry, if you had ice cream at the food truck rally earlier, we won't tell!

But that's not all, folks!!! We'll also have coloring contests for adults & kids with gift cards as prizes, and you can also try your hand at cornhole, but there's no prize for that!

If you like these fun activities, you'll probably love what we have planned for this weekend. Palm Harbor Patch is celebrating its 1st birthday Saturday and we'd like you to come party with us at the Suncoast Primate Sanctuary!

Saturday will be Palm Harbor Day at the . You and your kiddos can get free admission by showing us your driver's license, which must have a Palm Harbor address.  We'll also have free cupcakes and cookies from and fun activities for everyone. We'd love to see you there!
