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

Since 2008, City Fruit has stewarded and harvested fruit from public and private trees across Seattle to help make our food system more sustainable and just.

It's not too late to sign up your late season fruit trees and vines with us! We harvest apples, quince, persimmon, grapes, and kiwis through the fall!

Tree Care Services

We're in the last few weeks of summer fruit tree pruning, which is also the perfect time to rake up any fallen leaves and fruit to slow disease & pest cycles. As we wrap up the year, don't forget to look ahead and schedule your winter pruning between the months of January-April!
