Do you have fruit trees in your yard or neighborhood producing more fruit than you can handle?? If you have more fruit than you can use then Holy Nativity Church can help you!

The Church has launched Harvest Westchester, a community-based program that aims to collect excess backyard fruit and deliver it to Food Pantry LAX, where it will be shared with those in need.? Collection time is Thursday afternoons so that the food can be delivered to the Food Pantry on Friday mornings.

Donating is easy: you can box it up and bring it to Holy Nativity on Thursdays; or they will come by to pick it up; or even help you pick the fruit!? The Church volunteers are working hard to create a large database of residential fruit trees that will be available for harvest throughout the course of the year.? As a consequence, the volunteers will strengthen the support offered to property owners and residents to preserve and maintain their trees as a valuable food resource.

For further information on fruit donations or volunteering, please visit www.harvestwestchester.org or email holynativity@sbcglobal.net or call 310-670-4777. Holy Nativity Church is located at 6700 West 83rd at the corner of Dunbarton Avenue and 83rd Street.
