I hope they plan on coming back through and cleaning up all the not used drops. Especially before they all start rotting or animals get drunk on them and run into traffic.

Here is someone trying it but notice they have an entire crew devoted to managing them and their hundreds of lbs of produce weekly. None of this even talks about the logistics of distributing it either.

it costs money to take care of trees like that. There's a lot of work you need to do to make sure the fruit comes out the correct way.
That's the neat part: community tree is taken care by the community.
