City Fruit – Save Seattle’s Apples Orchard Pest Prevention

May 17, 2015 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm

free

Join City Fruit in a series of work party events to Save Seattle’s Apples! This spring campaign is meant to engage the community and promote awareness of the urban fruit trees, prevent common pests from spreading to nearby trees, keeping nutritious food from going to waste, and helping to preserve the biological diversity of fruit trees in Seattle.
City Fruit needs volunteers and volunteer groups to help place protective bags over the young apples in their orchard. These bags will keep out pests that like to eat the growing fruit. The more apples we can protect, the more fruit we can harvest and share with the community.

Sign-up here to volunteer.
