Backyard fruit, shared with the whole block.
Valley backyards grow tons of oranges, figs, dates and eggs that never get eaten. Homegrown picks them, shares them and sells them to neighbors, and every dollar feeds the mission.

Seasons in the low desert run backwards from the rest of the country. Here's what Valley trees are giving this month.
Your extra fruit feeds your neighbors
One mature citrus tree can give hundreds of pounds of fruit a year, far more than one family can eat. Instead of letting it rot, let it feed somebody.
Tell us what's ripe
Oranges, figs, eggs, anything. One quick form.
We pick it
Our crew and volunteers harvest on your schedule.
Neighbors eat it
It's shared, sold and donated locally. You get a tax receipt.
The desert is a pantry
Mesquite flour, saguaro fruit, prickly pear and palo verde beans have fed this land for thousands of years. We harvest them sustainably with local foragers and share them with you.

Homegrown Foods is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. A gift pays for pickers, boxes and gas, so more backyard fruit reaches tables instead of the trash.
