From Sara Environmental Charter
High School report on Common vision tree Planting at the School
plus
( Lawndale) Tree Planting Saturday, March 1,
2008 12:00PM till finished see below
Today was one of the most amazing days of my life (i know i say that a
lot, but it was). one of the buds I have been developing in my head
has finally bloomed into a magical fruit thanks to Common Vision and all
the students and teachers of Environmental Charter High School.
ECHS is officially the coolest school
in the world.
On this very day we not only planted over 40 fruit trees, had african
drumming, and eco-hip hop, hosted over 30 amazing Common Vision folks at
our school.
BUT soon you will be eating: apples, pears, peaches, nectarines,
persimmons, low cuats, avacado, lemons, guava, and a few more trees I
can't remember.
Here are the pictures of the tree planting:

The Common vision fold are
returning on Saturday from 12:00-3:00 to help our Green Ambassadors
spread (like Johnny Apple seed, RANDOM FACT: one of my heros, who
was banned by the Christian Coalition of woman b/c his apple trees were
used to make hard cider) the love of fruit trees in our community.
Anyone is welcome, from students getting their community service hours,
to us common folks who want to be part of some amazing energy. This
Saturday from 12:00-3:00 ECHS campus is the starting point. We are
trying to get 50 fruit trees in our surrounding community and offer
fruit trees as our moving in gesture (pretty nice gift).
Common vision is extraordinary. They are an amazing organization
and it is worth coming to our school this Saturday just to vibe off of
their energy.
I can't even begin to tell you how amazing that was for our
students to be part of it and how amazing it was to see it all happen.
Hopefully we will have more peeps this saturday. Invite whomever
you can!
