Fruit Trees Wanted! - Rotarian, Edi Birsan Helping Harvest Fruit...

A friend, Edi Birsan of Concord-Diablo Rotary is helping harvest homegrown fruit for donation to local food pantries. If you have a fruit tree with excess fruit, please contact Anna, The Lemon Lady at AnnaAndAva@gmail.com or Edi Birsan to harvest and donate fresh fruit to local food pantries.

Food pantries rarely receive fresh fruit donations. Your homegrown fruit is a welcomed healthy treat to those less fortunate. Thank you to the community for sharing. Thank you to Edi for helping.
