Embrace the spirit of the season with Community Fruit Rescue as we gather to celebrate a bountiful harvest and prepare for an even more fruitful year ahead! Join us as we celebrate our successes and the people who made this harvest season possible: CFR’s tree stewards, harvest leader volunteers, volunteer pickers, fruit recipient sites, our partners, and more. 

• Delicious food and beverages: Sample BOCO Cider’s delicious libations (including “Boulder Bushel” hard cider with fruit from CFR harvests!) and pair those with some light appetizer foods

• Cider pressing: Take a turn grinding rescued fruit from Boulder’s backyards and pressing it into delicious apple cider. The cider press will be running.

• Fun for all ages: Bring your family and participate in some of our apple-themed games and activities, like Apples to Apples, apples-themed mad libs, Ten Apples Up On Top, Giant Connect Four, Cornhole, Giant Jenga, and more!

• Rescued Fruit Store: Take home CFR’s fruit preserves, made from the fruit rescued at our local harvests (available with a suggested donation).

• Listen and learn: We’ll share an update on our 2024 season, introduce some of the folks who made everything possible, and loop you into our plans for the future.

Join BOCO Cider and Community Fruit Rescue for a post harvest party. Community Fruit Rescue harvests local fruit from the front yards, backyards, and side yards of private properties across Boulder Country. This fruit is donated to food banks, local farms, and BOCO Cider. Without CFR our annual press of Boulder grown apples would not be possible.
