Concrete Jungle Inc
We pick neglected produce from all over Atlanta and Athens and donate it to homeless shelters and food banks. If it's between May and October, we're picking! Concrete Jungle forages, farms and supports food access. We provide fresh produce to over 290,000 food-insecure individuals every year through our local fruit tree and farm harvests, growing food on our own farm in southwest Atlanta;, purchasing excess produce from local farms, and providing nutrition and cooking education to our clients.
