About

Join Concrete Jungle Athens every Tuesday evening as we harvest fruit from within our city! Fruit type and tree location change weekly! You will receive an email before the pick with all details you need to know. Please note that these events are heavily weather dependent, so please keep an eye on your email the day of the pick for up-to-date information about any location changes or cancellations. 

For these harvests, please always bring the following with you:
- Sturdy, close-toed shoes
- Comfortable clothes you don't mind getting dirty and can move around in!
- Water, and plenty of it!

If something comes up and you can't make it to a pick you're registered for, no worries! We rely on volunteers to harvest the fruit we donate, so please be sure to cancel your registration on GivePulse at least 24 hours in advance so someone else can take your spot and we can make sure we have enough helping hands to pick! 

FOOD SAFETY INFORMATION:
To ensure we're following food safety protocols and protecting the communities we're serving, please:
- Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before arriving to a Concrete Jungle pick
- Do not attend a pick if you're sick

COVID INFORMATION:

- Masks are optional at ourdoor events.
- Individuals who are sick or live with someone who is should not volunteer.

Note: All staff that oversee our programs are fully vaccinated. We ask volunteers who have traveled or may have been exposed to Covid-19 to not volunteer until they receive a negative test result.
