About City Fruit

Promoting and preserving urban fruit to nourish people, build community, and protect the environment.

The Harvest Is Here!

Share excess fruit with your community!
We harvest all kinds of fruit, and this year, are seeking to include early varieties like berries, cherries, and plums! Do you also have too many tomatoes? We can pick up already harvested excess tomatoes to distribute to food banks!

Tree Care Services

Do you have a tree with buggy fruit? Consider netting your trees this year! Our Fruit Tree Specialist can measure your tree and provide the net to help prevent damage from codling moth and other fruit pests! Or you can read here for more information on how to do it yourself!
