Coronado Crops Program

Do you have too much fruit on your trees?

Emerald Keepers high school interns are launching a new program to make sure all that nutritious produce doesn’t go to waste. They will pick your fruit, which will be delivered to the Imperial Beach Neighborhood Center Food Pantry by Rotary Club of Coronado. In partnership with the Coronado Public Library, Rotary Club already delivers produce grown in CHS and CMS Emerald Keepers Club gardens to the Food Pantry.

Over one in six people in San Diego don’t know where their next meal is coming from, and with the new Coronado Crops program, you can help Coronado be part of the solution.

Request your preferred weekend date and time, and Emerald Keepers interns will provide the labor and tools to pick your crops for a good cause.

Removing fruit from trees will not only help those in need, but also your tree and yard. Fruit left on trees eventually rots, attracting rodents and insects.
