ONE tree has yielded 40kg of organic apples for distribution by Bendigo Foodshare.
Peter and Marlies Eicher picked the golden delicious apples from their Salute Oliva property at Boort and made the delivery to Bendigo last week.
They are part of Foodshare’s Grow a Row, Pick a Branch program that started in 2018 and has seen donations of more than 80,000kg of fresh fruit and vegetables.
Foodshare’s community engagement manager Bridget Bentley said produce came from backyard growers, large and hobby farms, school gardens and community gardens.
Bendigo Foodshare supports foodbanks across central Victoria, including in the Loddon Shire.
