Fruit Squad Update!

2 March, 2013 at 10:13 am jorgomrock Leave a comment

The Fruit Squad is ready for summer fruit harvest in Northcote.

Fruit Squad is a project that involves volunteers picking backyard fruit and giving it to SecondBite, an organisation that redistributes fresh, nutritious food to those in need via hostels, rooming houses and community services, many located in Darebin.

With the summer seasons fruit ripening fast, the Fruit Squad is currently looking for back yard trees to pick.  If you live in Northcote, Thornbury or Preston, in the area bounded by Bell Street, St Georges Road, Grange Road and Heidelberg Road, and would like to register your fruit trees for harvesting, or want to pick your own which we can collect, please call Jika Jika Community Centre on (03) 9482 5100 or e-mail liz@jikajika.org.au.

Fruit Squad is an initiative of Transition Darebin in partnership with Jika Jika Community Centre, with support from Darebin City Council.
