Fruit Recovery & Processing Project

Hello,

We are looking at bringing together interested fruit pickers and matching them up with residents with unpicked or excess fruit.

A second stage would be to preserve the fruit and explore different methods of preservation (ie: canning, freezing and dehydration).

If possible, we would set up teaching events for people to learn how to preserve safely and efficiently. We would look to create a method to share the end product with homeowners that provided the fruit.

We are still at the exploration stages but will need to get started soon for this year's harvest season.

If you are interested, please contact me or Jim Moloney. We will need to organize a planning meeting in the near future to work out the details.

Thanks,

David Reay, davidreay@telus.net
