Folks,
I wanted to reach out on this site to raise some awareness about a project going on in Western MA called Help Yourself, a non-profit seeking to plant fruit and nut trees, shrubs, vines, herbs and veggie gardens in a variety of public settings, free for all to harvest from. We've planted at about 70 locations, mainly public schools, businesses, organizations, institutions, bike paths, etc. Check it out at www.helpyourselfedibles.org

We're currently doing an Indiegogo fundraiser to plant 2,000 fruit trees this spring!

It would be great to bounce ideas off of folks who have tried something similar in their communities.
Thoughts?

Felix
