Hi Pickers,

Apologies for the short notice! We have some apples and persimmons that need picking. If you come you’ll get to see our new Project Pick van! Let me know if you can join us for part or all of the time and I’ll sending joining details.

FYI – new volunteers will have to sign a waiver which I will have with me.

Please bring gardening gloves (if you have them), a hat, water and closed shoes.

We offer fruit to the tree owner, and we can take some, the rest all goes to the Alameda Food Bank.
