Richmond Food Security Society - Richmond Fruit Recovery Program

We coordinate volunteers to collect unused fruit, called a pick, from residential fruit trees and bushes and donate it to the Richmond Food Bank and other community partners.

The fruit gleaning program has been made possible by a grant from the Richmond Community Foundation allowing for supplies such as ladders, a shed and fruit pickers, as well as first aid certifications for our volunteers, allowing us to maintain the highest level of safety during picks.

Through this program, we can supply fresh healthy food to Richmond residents and help reduce food waste. The harvest is split three ways between volunteers, fruit owners, and community partners.
