Common Vision's first Fall Fruit Tree Tour!!!
The week is packed with groundbreaking local collaborations, fruit tree plantings with schools across the county, and a benefit celebration on Nov 7th (see info below).
Partnering groups such as The Gardens Project, Mendocino Environmental Learning Center, Noyo Food Forest, Round Valley Indian Health Center will be hosting the tour at their community centers and school garden projects. Together we will cool the planet and develop greater resources of health and wellbeing by planting abundant orchards!
Thank you Mendocino!
