The Atlanta Local Food Initiative (ALFI) Incredible, Edible, Grow-it-Yourself Fruit Tree, Vine and Berry Bush Sale is in progress through February 23, with early-bird specials through January 8. This annual sale is a fundraiser for ALFI, a network committed to growing a local food system that nourishes the people, environment, economy and communities in Metro Atlanta.

Purchase of a fruit tree gives the buyer a complimentary pass to the Georgia Organics Conference Expo, held February 23, where fruit trees will be available for pick-up. Varieties of trees and bushes include apple, fig, kiwi, paw paw, pear, persimmon, plum, pomegranate, nectarine, hazelnut and muscadine.
