Project Summary
Not Far From The Tree is Toronto’s only fruit gleaning group, connecting volunteers with homeowners and fruit trees that would otherwise go unpicked. Fruit from backyards all over the city is shared to reduce food waste and finds its way to community groups working to improve food security.
