What a great group of individuals. Common Vision is a tour group that travels all throughout California planting fruit trees in communities and schools. Now in it's 5th year commonvision has had a great positive influence to all they come in contact with. With their love and understanding of being one with nature truly inspires many. "Fruits of your labor" is understanding and respecting your planet, your surroundings and how it gives back to you when you take care of it. From apples to oranges, your back yard, school and community can yield much wealth.
Abiding by the age-old proverb "an apple a day keeps the doctor away" will no longer have to mean a trip to the supermarket for those who decide to plant fruit trees in their surroundings.
Support Common Vision by inviting them in your school or community. Talk to your teachers and/or community leaders.
