I don’t see any problem with it. In fact, I have thought of thing like this myself, along with having unemployed people on unemployment doing the harvesting as a condition of getting benefits. It would be unattractive work, but it would do something productive.

Unattractive work? Not many decades ago, most people would object to that characterization.
ess than two decades ago, “work for welfare” won bipartisan support.
We’ve only gone nuts for a few years, by a few percent, and it is one faction of one party.
Ever watch a city kid try to harvest fruit off a tree? They destroy the tree, pull all the wrong fruit, and then fall out of the tree. Instant lawsuit.
IF they ever get any fruit to grow (and the enviros will ensure they don't get to use effective fertilizer or pesticides on these trees), they will end up tearing them down because they are "attractive nuisances".
