What is Urban Foraging?

How it works

Urban Foraging Map NZ is a free, easy to use map for finding fruit & nut trees. To see what's growing near you, just open the map to view your local area & add your own markers if you find a fruit or nut tree!

What is Urban Foraging?

Gathering food from publicly accessible fruit & nut trees in towns and cities is known as urban foraging. It's a growing movement all around the world.

Why forage?

Eating locally grown fruit & nuts is good for you and good for the planet. An abundance of free food could be in your neighbourhood, depending where you live & the time of year.
