Hi Pickers,
We have two orange trees to pick this Saturday. Waiver forms will be available it you haven’t picked with us, or do not have one on file yet.
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.
Please call 510-239-PICK if you have any questions.
The meeting place will be given when you RSVP here.
Alameda Backyard Growers will have a booth at this event, and volunteers who can help answer questions about growing your own food!
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.

Since this coming Saturday, Nov. 18 promises to be dry, and we won’t pick over Thanksgiving weekend, please let me know if you are available in the afternoon to pick (from 2 – 4 PM).
Please only email info@alamedabackyardgrowers.org if you ARE available. I’ll let you know the addresses with your reply.
Thanks!

Hi Gleaners,
We are scheduling a pick for Sunday afternoon, Dec. 10, starting at 2PM. We’ll have two orange trees, and possibly a persimmon.
Look forward to hearing back from you if you CAN make it, and I’ll supply the address(es). Please email info@alamedabackyardgrowers.org if you can help.
A heartfelt thank you to the core group of pickers who have been so helpful and dedicated this year (you know who you are).
We will have some new guidelines for volunteers of Project Pick in 2018 – so stay tuned.
Thank you!

Let’s get 2018 off to a great start and surpass last year’s level of 2800 lbs of fresh backyard fruit delivered to the Alameda Food Bank! What a great way to celebrate our Year of Sustainable Gardening!
We have 4 trees (lemons and oranges) to pick this weekend and more on our waiting list for the next pick. Citrus season has arrived.
Please let me know if you are available and I will send the meeting point information.
Bring gardening gloves and water. A hat and eye protection is also recommended.
Thank you!
