🍊 PUBLIC FRUIT TREE ADOPTION 🌳
What if you could walk outside your door and pick fruit instead of buying it at the grocery store?

 

On April 18, Fallen Fruit  (David Allen Burns & Austin Young) invite the public to join us at Monument to Sharing in Los Angeles State Historic Park to help grow The Endless Orchard — a living public artwork made of fruit trees planted and cared for by the community.

If you want to collaborate with us by adopting a fruit tree and planting it along the sidewalk in front of your home, school, church, or business — we will map it so it becomes part of this growing orchard for everyone to share.

Fallen Fruit will provide the fruit trees. If you have space along the sidewalk, you can adopt a tree, plant it in publicly accessible space, and care for it so the fruit can be shared with neighbors and anyone who passes by.

We’ll also be hosting our “Power of Pollinators” portrait booth, photographing the neighbors and collaborators who are helping plant and care for these trees.

Together we can transform the city into a living orchard — shared by everyone.
