According to the American Heritage Cookbook, in 1736 Ann Lee, founder of the Shakers, was born on February 29. To commemorate her birthday, each year on March 1 the Shakers held an afternoon meeting, followed by a supper at which this cake was served. The original recipe advises, “Cut a handful of peach twigs which are filled with sap at this season of the year. Clip the ends and bruise them and beat the cake batter with them. This will impart a delicate peach flavor to the cake.”
According to cooks.com, hot fruit compote consists of
1 can pear halves
1 can peach halves
1 can chunk pineapple
1 can Bing cherries, pitted
1 stick cinnamon
5 cloves
1 c. brown sugar, packed
1/2 c. dry wine or brandy
2 tbsp. butter
Another recipe that is low in carbohydrates and good for those with diabetes is:

Granny Smith apples; Peeled -cored and cut into chunks
3 Bartlett pears; Peeled -cored and cut into chunks
18 Dried apricot halves (4oz)
1 c Water
1/3 c Dried cranberries or -dried cherries
1/3 c Honey
1 tb Orange rind; grated
1/2 c Orange juice
1 1/2 tb Lime juice

I have not found any place to get free compote but I would check with restaurants in your area.
