Welcome to Falling Fruit Ireland 2024!

URBAN HARVESTING PROJECT

Falling Fruit Ireland is a project to harvest the seasonal glut of local fruit (apples, pears, plums, nuts, etc.). We collect throughout the Dublin area and around the country and give it to charities that cater for those in need. Each year hundreds of fruit trees go unpicked. ‘Falling Fruit’ organises a team of volunteers who pick the fruit and distribute it to local charities or other good causes.

Join us and take part in Food Waste Prevention, Urban Harvesting, Food Donations to Charities and creating a more caring world!
