It is that time again where Common Vision is putting on events to help put fresh local schoolyard grown fruit into the bellies of thousands of low income school children across the state. Here's how it works. You come and have a great time at the events near you. Common Vision then plant trees and inspires another 10,000 students with theater, music, and a spirit of working together.
