Arrange the sentences into the correct order.

Put the sentences in the correct order:

  1. A tree planted for shade has, almost incidentally, become a small piece of the food system.
  2. As a result, neighborhoods that once had no fresh produce nearby gained a free, seasonal source of apples, plums, and pears.
  3. To address this, cities partnered with community groups who agreed to harvest the fruit before it dropped, distributing it through local food banks.
  4. The idea faced early resistance from maintenance crews, who worried that fallen fruit would rot on sidewalks and attract pests.
  5. Several cities have begun planting fruit trees along ordinary streets instead of the purely ornamental species long favored by planners.
