Saint Joseph, commonly referred to as St. Joe, is an unincorporated community in Pasco County, Florida, United States.[1] It was originally settled as a German Catholic community. It is located in the northeastern part of Pasco County in Central Florida a few miles north of San Antonio and Saint Leo University. Saint Joseph also claims to be the "kumquat capital of the world" for its production of the citrus fruit. Because of this, nearby Dade City hosts the annual Kumquat Festival.[2] The community is also home to Sacred Heart Catholic Church, the third oldest parish in the Diocese of St. Petersburg.[3][4]
