City Fruit has always been community-driven and focused, and a large part of our work has been possible only because of invested community members like you! Our new membership program starting in 2021 recognizes that our members love fruit, community, and the opportunity to engage in special promotions across the city. As a City Fruit member you get to take advantage of these member benefits, which align with City Fruit’s core values:
Sharing Fruit – Fruit-For-All CSA: City Fruit members have the opportunity to sign up to for limited spots of reserved free fruit during our Fruit-for-All farmstand pop-ups held throughout the harvest season across Seattle! Last year, our CSA included a variety of fresh, organic, hyper-local fruit that was freshly picked in our own neighborhoods. This year, we hope to add dried apples as well!
Celebrating Fruit – Cider Apples: For those interested in making pressed cider and interested in diverting more fruit from waste, you can request cider apples at $.20 a pound (a minimum 3 weeks notice required; while supplies last). Members can also rent our cider press at a discount.
Creating the best and fullest fruit – City Fruit’s Signature Tree Care Services: Members get 10% off tree care services, that can include help with planting, pruning, mulching, harvesting, tree assessments, pest management, and more!
Building Community – City Fruit Educational Events: Members receive 10% off of our Master Fruit Tree Stewards program registration fee. During the months of September-October, City Fruit plans to host members-only events that may include tours of an urban orchard, cider pressing, and jam making (while under pandemic precautions, we anticipate these small events will be outdoors and social distance measures taken).
Collaborating – Partner Recognition: Enjoy promotions from our partner businesses! Please check this site regularly as new businesses partner with us!
