Spare fruit inspires Ugly's community pantry

From First Up, 5:45 am on 9 October 2023

We all see those trees around the neighbourhood laden with fruit that never gets eaten, resigned to falling away and rotting on the ground. Well a Devonport man thought enough with the waste, there are people out there who want a piece of that juicy produce. That idea has now turned into a fully fledged commmunity pantry called UGLY'S, serving thrifty locals and those in need. Leonard Powell took a trip over the harbour bridge to meet the man behind the cause.
