"Across the Phoenix metro area, citrus trees sag under the weight of more
produce than homeowners can harvest and use. Thousands of pounds of fruit go to
waste every year while more than half a million area residents struggle with
food insecurity.

What if these food-insecure households—more than 13 percent of the county’s
population—could access the abundant provision literally dropping from trees in
their neighbors’ backyards?"
