- ➤ The Chuluota Resource Center food pantry was opened four months ago near the Chuluota Grocery Store by local resident Barbie Worswick to provide community-donated food and summer meals for children who miss out on school lunches. Food manager April Longenbach and volunteer coordinator Angela Eakman said the pantry offers an after-hours cabinet for grabbing food — even a simple bag of chips brightens a child's day and eases a parent's worries.
