I was posting stuff about foraging from public fruit trees a few years ago on Reddit and in this cost of living crisis/food insecurity it seems timely to give it another bump here.

Though we shouldn't have to. :(

The Local Food Connect map posted for the main article seems really limited to inner Melbourne which is annoying.

The map from Public Fruit Melbourne requires you to request access.

However the article links a much more comprehensive map at the Falling Fruit website. This also offers locations for the outer suburbs of Melbourne as well as quite a few other Australian states.
