I know of a community garden that solved their problem by renting a small gas powered trencher, making a trench from the location of the sillcock to the edge of the garden, burying poly waterline in the trench, then adding fittings to both ends of the poly in order to connect hoses -- a short piece at the building, and a longer hose for use in the garden. I think they got all the parts on Amazon, but you can probably find them at any irrigation supply store.

Since you're in FL, you shouldn't have to worry about blowing it out to avoid freezing during the winter.
