Abundance Wimbledon
There are lots of fruit trees around Wimbledon, but many are not picked and fruit is wasted. Abundance Wimbledon is a project to encourage people to use the fruit or give it away.
There are various ways to help. If you have a fruit tree in your garden, then let us know and donate the surplus to Abundance. We will distribute it, particularly to schools and people who can’t afford fresh fruit. If you need help to harvest, maybe we can lend a hand.
We need volunteers to help with picking fruit. Also, we are holding a Fruit Day on September 17th at St Mark’s Church, with fruit-pressing and other fruit-related stalls. Maybe you have ideas about what to put on a stall, have skills in baking/preserving fruit, or have other ideas for using the fruit. We need help to organise this.

Abundance Wimbledon was formed by local people, including those from St Mark’s Church, Bishop Gilpin School, Wimbledon Park Residents’ Association and Transition Town Wimbledon.
