‘Ripe Near Me’ Connects Homegrown Produce to People

Share On Social!

Have you ever shared extra produce from your backyard garden with neighbors and friends? Have you ever been the recipient of your co-worker’s plentiful citrus tree? Sharing extra home-grown produce is fun and benefits everyone. A new website is tapping into this phenomenon, connecting hungry strangers with growers eager to get some extra produce off their hands.

The site Ripe Near Me aims to connect peeps trying to sell (or just plain give away) their backyard bounty with people nearby.

You can search by your favorite fruit, follow someone in your area who’s growing it, and get a notification when it’s ripe. You can even offer to trade some of your own homegrown produce.

Launched in Australia, the website is stil in beta and does not have many users yet. You can be a part of its success by posting about extra produce you may have grown!
