2010 Fruit Tree School Tour CA /8,600 Students, 863 Fruit Trees, 1 
Big Impact ~ See it all on Fruit Tree TV  Season 1!

This year's (the seventh) Fruit Tree Tour was an amazing success. 
The new school orchards once again surpassed all past years in terms 
of the number of  different varieties of fruit the students will be 
eating right from their schoolyard.

Students celebrated their new orchards with hand-painted signs they 
planted beside each tree to carry the messages of change that they 
wished to share with their communities. The 2010 Fruit Tree Tour 
program brought Green Theatre to new depths (by going underground) 
with WendyBob the earthworm.  Over 8,000 students (plus the 
principals and teachers) took a pledge with Common Vision's theatre 
troupe to work together to create a positive impact on this great 
planet.  What a tour!  

Stay tuned.  In case you missed it, Check out the 7 re-run episodes

Remember to celebrate the late spring with in-season fruit.  Be on 
the lookout for cherries, apricots, and loquats from a farmer or 
schoolyard near you.

ABOUT
In the last 6 years, the Fruit Tree Tour Program has directly 
impacted 45,000 students, transformed over 120 low income schools and 
community centers into abundant orchards, and planted over 3,500 
fruit trees.  In the Spring of 2010, 27 eco-educators and performing 
artists will once again travel in the world's largest veggie- 
oil-powered caravan to plant trees, play drums, dance, perform, and 
write eco-rhymes with youth and adults from San Diego to Sacramento.  

With love,
