I just found out that there is a gleaning group in my town. Last year they picked 15,000 pounds of fruit over 29 gleaning events. They get permission to pick at both private and public sites. They also provide fruit trees and supplies to anyone who is willing to host gleaning events in the future.

It is called Urban Abundance

I just signed up at their website. This evening I was invited to my first plum picking adventure! It looks like a great opportunity.
