		<description><![CDATA[The trees are loaded&#8230; The pickers are waiting&#8230; &#8230;And they&#8217;re off! Nearly three weeks ahead of schedule, Toronto&#8217;s cherries ripened hastily and set us off on an early start to the season. We&#8217;re still in the midst of hiring seasonal staff, so our amazing team of specially-trained and super-dedicated volunteers, who we call Supreme Gleaners, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The fruit picks that Not Far From The Tree organizes have many magical qualities, but there&#8217;s nothing quite like the happenstance of gleaning from trees and shrubs on public land. The picking is determined by the watchful eye of the passerby, lending a spontaneity to the act. And you never know who else might also [...]]]></description>

The above photo of an apricot tree blossoming at Ben Nobleman Community Orchard was taken on April 4, 2010, whereas last year&#8217;s first apricot blossoms in the same neighbourhood were only on April 29th (and still they were nipped in the bud, so [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This year, we at Not Far From The Tree began our harvesting season much earlier than usual. We started with a winter season crop &#8211; maple syrup! It was a first for us and therefore most of our effort this year was put into working through the logistics. The pilot program has gone from start [...]]]></description>

The greatest pleasure of this winter morning meal is to add a few tastes of summer into the mix. When the first summer pears were ready last year, I set some aside to make into [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In 2009 we harvested a few treats that we hadn&#8217;t harvested in 2008: plums, sumac drupes, black walnuts, ginkgo nuts, and my own personal forage for quince. It&#8217;s amazing what the trees in the city can provide for our food needs. But the urban forest has even more to offer, including non-foodstuffs from its plentiful [...]]]></description>

I had never heard of the fruit before, let alone be able to recognize its blossoms. Nor did I know the first thing about how to harvest the fruit or [...]]]></description>

After all, I had been away from Toronto for a week and was getting anxious without having picked any fruit!

A large crowd came out to provide a drumroll for our final tally of pounds picked: 8,135! Many more had hoped to join in on the fun but we sold out ahead of time. Next year we will be sure to book a [...]]]></description>
