Been updating falling fruit for years but I hardly ever see anyone talkjng about it. It's one of the most solarpunk things I've seen.

On are things like fruit/ nut trees, any edidble plant with links to the usda and wikipedia. It also has tons of places like free bike pumps, water pumps, little libraries, free fridges / pantries, community gardens / orchards, it even let me add free changing stations and a free bicylce co op near me.

I've added hundreds of sites around me, ever some on the edge of my own property for people to enjoy.

we do sort of, we rake it up and

  1. some of it goes to the local animal rescue centre, they have horses, goats, sheep etc. They also let us take as much of the manure as we want and we mix it into our composts

  2. Feed the neighbours cows with wheelbarrows of apples

  3. Some goes into the compost itself.

  4. Share with local birds :)
