Poll: Do you have an oversupply of citrus?
When Jasmin Sampson wandered down to her local community house in Hillcrest with a bag of fruit, she had no idea it would snowball into a harvest measured by the hundreds of kilos.
After spotting Go Eco’s food rescue ad for homeowners with excess produce, she signed up — and before long volunteers were in her backyard hauling out crates of grapefruit, lemons, oranges and mandarins. All up? More than 240kg of citrus.
