Today we have a guest post from Julie Kadingo, a member on the Georgetown Yahoo Groups site. This program is pretty darn cool and a great idea for sharing the wealth of all the fruit trees in Seattle that go underutilized each year. It was fantastic that this program reminder came out as I’ve been considering putting together a fruit tree and garden goodies exchange in my own residential area so that lots of neighbors can benefit from a wider variety of plantings and any excess can make it to local food banks instead of in the compost pile or rotting in the garden plot.
Hi Everyone,Last year, I worked with Solid Ground’s Community Fruit Harvest. Many homes in the Greater Seattle area have apple, plum, or pear trees that can produce hundreds of pound of fruit. Owners may turn a pound or two in pies or jars of applesauce; however, since a tree drops its entire yield in a matter of days/weeks, most fruit turns to waste, either as “car bombs” or “lawn carpets.”
In 2008 volunteers from the Fruit Harvest Program collected 18,000+ pounds from seven neighborhoods. The fruit was donated to food banks, meals programs, shelters, residential facilities, programs for children and youth, and senior programs.
If you are interested in helping this year:
**as a tree owner who’d like your tree to be on this years map for donating all or some of the fruit.
**as a tree owner who’d like to attend workshops on caring for trees (pruning, planting, managing pests.
**anyone who’d like to learn how to can, make jam, dry fruit, participate in community kitchens where everyone brings what they have and makes meals that can be frozen for your family or donated.
**anyone who’d like to volunteer to pick fruit in the Georgetown area, store fruit, donate a ladder for other volunteers who are picking fruit…
**anyone who is curious
