A friend sent me this article: These cities turned parks into orchards where anyone can pick for free - Washington Post

The authors of the blog post above wrote this book:
The Community Food Forest Handbook


And have a map of these food forest in the US:

Community Food Forest Map

There are probably more that they don't know about.  Can anyone help them add to the map?

Cool news, right?
