Oakland’s fruit doesn’t fall far from the tree
In this part of Urban Youth Harvest, a program of the nonprofit People United for a Better Life in Oakland (PUEBLO), teenagers and young adults from neighborhoods in East and West Oakland are hired for the summer to glean fruit from backyard trees, largely in the Dimond, Laurel and Fruitvale neighborhoods, if residents don’t have the inclination to do so themselves.
The harvest is donated to low-income senior centers in the neighborhoods in which the youths live.
