Here's an idea. Have you ever thought about the amount of fruit, especially apples, that are wasted each year. In towns and cities all over the UK there are thousands of fruit trees whose fruit simply drops to the ground and rots.
In Birmingham there is a project called Abundance that has mapped where all the trees are and an army of volunteer pickers goes round collecting the fruit. They have discovered a wide range of varieties, some quite rare, far more than you get in your average supermarket.
The apples are taken to schools and given away.
Food for thought? (or should that be Thought for food?)
