2025 Pick Event is CANCELLED.
With heavy hearts we announce that The PICK EVENT will not be held in 2025. Please read our News announcement here.
Since 2014 Baton Rouge Green has partnered with the Greater Baton Rouge Food Bank and organized The Pick Event each winter. Residents who have well-established trees producing more fruit than they can consume can register their trees online to be harvested, and Baton Rouge Green mobilizes and equips volunteer pickers to collect the fruit which is then donated to the Food Bank. The fresh fruit, grown and harvested entirely by volunteers, is then distributed throughout the Food Bank network to families in need across 27 parishes.
Thanks to our Pick Event Sponsors
