what do you think of this? |
|
A service for people who have edibles growing on their property but no time or patience for preserving it: a 2-person "crew" that comes to the home, harvests the edibles and puts them up -- pickles, sauces, preserves, freezer packs, whatever. Either for a fee, or for a share of the product (which could be donated to a food bank).
I know there are gleaners groups, but this could provide a service for low-income homeowners who just happen to have fruit trees or nut trees etc.

It would work for people like me too...I can't do it physically on my own.

We could have used that when we had three apricot trees and no help at all. :)
