Bear ActivityThe next three questions are about black bears. Why are we talking about bears, you ask? By harvesting the surplus fruit growing throughout Boulder, we are helping to protect the local black bears that wander into town in search of food. Urban areas are not safe places for large animals like black bears; please help us be better neighbors to our wildlife by answering these questions about bears. Contact bears@fruitrescue.org with questions.

*Community Fruit Rescue reserves the right to schedule anytime during the weeklong windows listed below.
*Please list the quantity and type of fruit tree(s) you’d like Community Fruit Rescue to harvest. For each tree, please provide as much detail as possible about the tree size, location, and abundance of fruit. This helps us plan for a successful harvest with our volunteers! (Ex: 1 apple tree: 25 ft tall, needs a ladder to reach the top fruit, located in the backyard on grass, and is extremely full of red apples.)
*Our volunteers expect to harvest at least a 40 lb crate of fruit at each harvest. Do you feel you have this amount of fruit to pick? For chokecherry-only harvests, we ask that your tree or shrub be especially full of ripe fruit, as the small size of chokecherries requires a more abundant yield to make harvesting worthwhile. -- select -- Yes No Not sure, please call me.
*Have the trees been sprayed or treated in the past year? Yes, with a common insecticide or pesticide. Yes, but it is non-toxic. No
*If yes, what product was used, and when? (Please write n/a if you selected "no" to this question)
