Community Fruit Drop Off Locations
Update 3/20/2020:
During the current COVID-19 crisis food agencies are not accepting homeowner drop offs. Please do not pick your own tree for donation at this time; keep citrus fruit on the tree, where most varieties will hold well for several months.
If you have excess fruit and are physically able to harvest it, the following agencies have accepted and distributed fruit and produce donations to the hungry in their communities. Click on any red marker on this map to see details on each location displayed, which are also listed below the map. Please call the organization first for current information and hours. (Please contact Village Harvest with updates or corrections.)
