THE BIG URBAN FORAGE - JOIN THE AUTUMN CHALLENGE
With Cambridge Sustainable Food.
This autumn, Cambridge Sustainable Food are on a mission to collect unwanted seasonal fruits and turn them into chutneys, jams and sauces. We hope to raise awareness of the benefits of upcycling surplus food and empower the local community with knowledge about the seasonality and availability of produce on their doorstep.
Join us in our campaign to save surplus fruits in Cambridge and celebrate the joy of putting them to delicious use.
Residential Surplus Fruit collections - 9th - 13th September
If you have fruit trees in your garden and lots of unwanted fruit surplus please email us and we will arrange a collection volunteer@cambridgesustainablefood.org
We are collecting apples, pears, and blackberries. All produce must be in good condition, please no windfall or damaged fruit.
We will be weighing in fruits as they come in and sharing regular updates on Instagram - follow us @cambridgesustainablefood to see how our haul grows over the week!
All products we create from the collected fruits will be distributed to our food hubs around the city throughout autumn and will be available at our Foraged Fruits stall at the Food for the Planet Festival, Museum of Technology, Saturday 26th October.
