The browser app has always been way ahead and the programmers behind the whole idea are super competent.
Someone should do this for tech meetups with free pizza and beer. I practically lived on those my first year in the bay area. If you're smart you can eat for free every night of the week in exchange for listening to a few boring lightning talks and recruiter pitches.
Freeganing can save you bank.
Hit up the nicer grocery stores: Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Lunardi's, Nob Hill. Find out their schedules for throwing away perfectly good food because the arbitrary/conservative date on it "expired." One of my friends frequently scores expensive cuts of filet mignon steaks that they just toss (I'm vegetarian when it would increase demand for animal ag).
You don't need to waste time pretending to be interested in Meetups.
Also, if you go in the back of Starbucks and other chains that serve food, maybe an hour before closing time, you can score healthy vittles. (The give my friend all the black bean burritos and chicken salads he can carry.)
Personally, I'd be worried about eating fruit from trees in dense urban areas or near highways due to pollution and also pollution from landscape management (i.e., pesticides).
Got to say this is an impressively dense map, there's plenty of options within 1 mile of my current location. Seems dangerous to use this info though, who knows what kinds of pesticides are sprayed on those fruit trees for example.
I do appreciate the efforts of the team behind this map. Found a strawberry patch only a couple of miles from my place.

Who goes around spraying apple trees on public land? I'd be far more worried about finding a worm in my apple! I do appreciate the efforts of the team behind this map. Found a strawberry patch only a couple of miles from my place.
Finding half a worm, now,...
Swedes will hate this app. Don't you dare take my secret mushroom spots!

Three of four fruit trees in a sea of trash compactors, electronic waste disposals and residential trash. I can filter on a specific category but I can't seem to filter "everything but a specific category" to get rid of the freegan stuff.
