Every summer packers from all
over the Valley donate their cull
peaches and nectarines to us. From June to the beginning of Sept. over 1,200 youth from all over California and other States as well as Canada come to process the fruit. It takes approximately 80 people to run the fruit line efficiently and 20 to pick up the dried fruit in the field. The dried fruit is sent to feed the hungry of the world. Working in the California heat has been a real team effort and character building experience for many. The staff at Gleanings is proud of the youth and all others who have worked hard to make it all possible. In 2009, we bucketed 597,000 lbs of dried peaches and nectarines.
