Our Pie It Forward tote bags are finally here! This limited-edition collaboration between Mixed Fillings Pie Shop, Pie It Forward Florida, and 0racle Ink was created to celebrate community, storytelling, and the power of sharing pie with purpose.

Each tote is sturdy enough for market hauls, library runs, beach days, and—of course—a pie or two.

When you purchase a tote, you’re helping support the Pie It Forward initiative, which brings people together through baking events, storytelling dinners, and community gatherings that celebrate culture, connection, and giving back.

And because we like to keep things interesting…

One lucky tote will include two Jacksonville Jaguars tickets with some of the best seats in the stadium. Consider it a little surprise tucked inside the bag.

Thank you, Jacksonville

The Great Riverside Pie Off may be over, but the spirit behind it is just getting started. Thank you to everyone who helped make it a meaningful community fundraiser full of flavor, fun, and purpose.

Why Pie It Forward Florida matters

Pie It Forward Florida exists to bring people together through food-centered experiences that nourish community, spark storytelling, and support meaningful local causes. Through events, partnerships, and creative programming, we aim to make generosity feel tangible, joyful, and shared.

We believe a slice of pie can open the door to conversation, connection, and care.

What we just accomplished.

The Great Riverside Pie Off was more than a celebration — it was a powerful example of what happens when community, creativity, and purpose come together.

Our Ethos

Pie It Forward Florida was created from a simple belief:

when people gather around food, stories rise—and real support follows.

Through shared meals, community events, and intentional storytelling, we raise funds and awareness for children in care, the advocates who serve them, and the systems that shape their futures.

Every slice carries purpose. Every table becomes a place of care.

Because every slice should come with compassion.

Buy a seat. Give a slice.
