West Seattle scene: City Fruit harvest helper, with an audience

Before the season’s over, we wanted to remind you again that City Fruit is harvesting fruit from trees in West Seattle this summer – like the one in the Arbor Heights backyard whose owner shared the picture of Dusty‘s recent visit. As noted here a month ago, City Fruit will harvest extra fruit for donation to local food banks and meal programs; if you’re willing to share unsprayed, healthy fruit from your tree(s), contact them at westseattle@cityfruit.org.

    Dusty has been to our apple tree twice so far. Great program!

    City Fruit is the coolest — glad to see the West Seattle harvest is going well. Neighbors, we have soo much fruit out there that could be going somewhere. Not only is City Fruit voluntarily harvesting fruit trees to donate to food banks and community groups, but they offer free pruning classes to get aging trees into better health. Also, don’t miss the upcoming Cider Press fundraiser at West Seattle nursery at the end of September.

    Dusty,
    Thanks to you and all the work City Fruit has completed this year, the apples and plums have been a major assistance to us at the West Seattle Food Bank!
