And Peter has eyes open...... YEAH
We reduce fruit waste and redistribute it within our communities.
We’ve worked hard to improve local food security and reduce fruit waste in Vancouver since 1999, and have harvested over 72,000 lbs of fruit.
We’re a grassroots organization and registered charity focused on picking backyard fruit trees in Vancouver with a dedicated team of volunteers. We also attend outreach events, host workshops, and build connections with our communities in pursuit of our vision.
Our Mission
To strengthen Vancouver’s food security by celebrating and distributing the bounty of our local fruit trees, reducing fruit waste, and cultivating community in our neighbourhoods.
Our Vision
We envision a food secure Vancouver where everyone has access to fresh, local fruit, and the environmental impact of food waste is minimized.
We’re a grassroots organization on a mission to strengthen Vancouver’s food security by harvesting backyard fruit trees and delivering it to organizations serving members in our community who typically have reduced access to fresh produce. Their Community Partners receive the fruit from picks and distribute it to their members through direct distribution or through workshops, community kitchens, and more.
Do you have backyard fruit to share with your community?
