We transform overlooked and underutilized fruit trees and land into a healthy food source for communities in need.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) defines food insecurity as a lack of consistent access to enough food for an active, healthy life.

One in eight Georgians are food insecure, lacking reliable access to affordable, nutritious food, thus contributing to negative health outcomes. Food-insecure individuals are 2-3 times more likely to have diet-related chronic disease such as diabetes, heart disease and hypertension. At the same time, food loss and waste in the US is higher than any other country. Concrete Jungle exists in the gap between food insecurity and food waste.

History

Fruit is fallin’ everywhere!

Concrete Jungle started when founders, Aubrey and Craig, discovered the huge abundance of fruit growing in the Atlanta area and going to waste each season.

Dig Into Our History

One thing I love about Concrete Jungle is that it is food with dignity. It is intentionally and purposefully picked for the people in mind. We see humans not just statistics.
