San Francisco’s Laguna Honda Hospital is seeking your vote as it competes with other civic institutions around the country to receive a free orchard from an Oakland-based ice cream company.

The prize in the competition — run by Dreyer’s and the nonprofit Fruit Tree Planting Foundation — is an orchard, an irrigation system and a groundbreaking party replete with Dreyer’s fruit bars.

Laguna Honda officials said their 62-acre campus in the West of Twin Peaks neighborhood was the perfect place for an orchard because fruit trees would offer patients and the hospital’s 765 disabled and elderly residents a therapeutic gardening program and organic fruit.
