If you live near one of these eight parks, you’re getting apples

Locations of 48 new fruit-bearing apple trees will be selected to avoid bears and rodents

City parks workers will be planting six apple trees in each of eight municipal parks as part of a pilot project aimed at bolstering food security.

"This year’s group of plantings shall be a pilot project with advantages and disadvantages to be tracked in the upcoming years to be able to best determine program expansion," Beach says in a report to Mayor Matthew Shoemaker and city councillors. "We will be planting four-foot-high, four-year-old trees which should start producing apples in three to four years time after planting.""The intent of planting fruit-bearing trees in an effort to combat food security issues serves as an educational program as well as a community growth initiative as stated," Beach says.
