Help Us Honor Baker County’s Military Heroes 🇺🇸

We've received a few wonderful submissions for our Baker County Military Heroes Project, but we know there are many more stories waiting to be told.

Baker County has a long and proud tradition of military service. From World War I and World War II to Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf War, and today's service members and veterans, countless men and women from our community have answered the call to serve. We want to help preserve those stories and ensure their service is remembered for generations to come.

📸 Do you have a family member who served in the military?
We invite you to share their story with us by submitting a photograph and information about their service.

Please include:
• Full name
• Branch of service
• Conflict(s) or era in which they served
• Area of Baker County where they lived
• Any additional details, stories, or accomplishments you'd like to share

⭐ Our primary focus for this first project is honoring Baker County veterans and service members of World War I and World War II. However, we are gladly accepting submissions from all eras of military service. We have additional military history projects planned that will highlight veterans from other conflicts and explore Baker County's military heritage more broadly.

❤️ So far, we've only received a handful of submissions, and we know there are many more deserving heroes whose stories deserve to be preserved and shared. Please help us spread the word by sharing this post with family and friends.

These submissions will be featured in upcoming Baker County Historical Society exhibits and commemorative presentations.

📧 Send photos and information to: [email protected]
📅 Submission Deadline: June 30, 2026

Together, let's make sure the stories of Baker County's military heroes are not lost to time.

Past. Present. Always Honored.

The state budget passed this week includes $38 Million for Farmers Feeding Florida, which is now a permanent resource thanks to this year’s Farm Bill. That’s $76 million over two years connecting Florida farmers to families in need of fresh food. This is a collaboration between farmers, cooperatives, processors, food banks, and state leadership to make sure good, wholesome food does not go to waste. When school is out, dairy farmers are often left with significant surplus, while many children do not have access to meals at school. This year, through Farmers Feeding Florida, that surplus was recovered and redirected into communities rather than wasted. That’s just one example. In its first year, Farmers Feeding Florida has recovered over 43 million pounds of food to help support our neighbors in need. The diversity of recovered food reflects the strength of Florida agriculture.
