Community Fruit for All
What are Community Fruit Trees?
Community Fruit Trees are generally publicly owned and available for everyone to enjoy. The goal is to have access to delicious, nutritious fruit. We also hope to reduce hunger, improve our natural environment, create a deeper connection to our food, build community, and exercise our independence from the globalized, industrial food system.
A sign next to the trees invite people to enjoy the fruit. Trees can be found on the map below. Just imagine picking an abundance of fruit directly from the trees and shrubs right in your neighborhood!
We are here to help establish Community Fruit Trees in your community! Since 2018 we have been of service through two programs. With our grants program, we provided grants to selected recipients to purchase the trees from local nurseries as well as basic materials like mulch. With our trees by mail program we had the trees mailed to our recipients through our partner nurseries.
