I have heard of a few local fruit groups doing some work of this kind but not 
with this organization.  MidFEx did some at the Chicago Botanic garden but 
mostly weren't listed to if I have the story straight.  I know that some 
school groups helped planting pawpaws for the paw paw variety trials but 
except for the help from master gardeners that didn't go well.  The kids were 
more interested in watching the opposit sex than planting things well and the 
organizers said that they would not do that again. The chapter of California 
rarefruit growers that maintains and plants an exotic fruit collection in a 
park in San Jose seems to be going well.  I think that they planted, labeled 
and maintained it over many years.
