Harvest Private Trees


Have you ever seen a fruit tree in someone's yard go nearly all to waste rotting on the ground? Combine that with the wish that you had a fruit tree to harvest of your own? Well...


This page offers two resources:

1) A Tract as Adaptable Form Letter to a homeowner with excess fruit. This letter was originally created as a tract for Lisa Anne Auerbach's Tract House.

The Tract House is a "spread-the-word" project debuting at the Contemporary Museum in Baltimore, June and July, 2008. As part of the "Cottage Industries" exhibition, The Tract House will be distributing free tracts to the public.


2) Links to the many other projects around who are implementing similar lines of thought. E-Mail us more links!

2) LInks to Projects doing something in a larger and more organized way:
