Our Mission
At Freshwater Books FL, we're on a mission to rescue used books from recycling and redistribute them throughout our local community. We ensure free access to books for educators, organizations, private libraries for assisted living facilities, hospitals, and more!
Discover Freshwater Books
Need books?
We love giving books a second life for a good cause —
from donating to Alzheimer’s and breast cancer fundraisers to sharing large prints with senior centers and devotionals with single moms.
Each week, we set aside hundreds of children’s and educational books ready to give freely to schools, homeschoolers, teachers, and community programs.
If your organization could use them, we’d love to help you spread the joy of reading.
Support us!
We’re growing and could use a little help turning the page.
Donate books or through PayPal to
help us get a truck and retail space for our next chapter.
Shop with us!
Shop with us and help support our mission while finding something special for yourself.
Check out our eBay store, upcoming market dates, and more — every purchase helps keep the books (and the good work) going.

Right now, we work out of Big Tree Storage in Longwood, Fl. As of August 2025 we are available Mondays and Wednesdays. More information to come. Appointment only for now!
Almost anyone! So long as there is a communal and/or educational intent behind the acquisition, we want to help. What's the worst that could happen? Try asking!
Make us an offer on eBay. Otherwise, we price to help or give away for free!
We're working hard on sorting out the logistics of being able to offer books of many assorted genres by the pound + shipping. Fall of 2025 looks to be our launch! Aside from that, we can only offer FREE BOOKS for local pick up until further notice.
We mean that our purpose is to offset the cost of books to further education. Let us know what organization you're with and/or why you need the books and we'll do what we can!
