Common Vision was on the red carpet at the 
Northern California Emmy Awards, May 10th 2008 at 
the Palace of fine Arts in San Francisco, 
CA.  The Fruit Tree Tour episode of Natural 
Heroes, a national television series of 
independent films on the environment, was 
nominated for an Emmy in the category of 
children/youth-program special. I know. We 
couldn't believe it either.  Our celebration 
exploded when the envelope opened and the winner 
was. Fruit Tree Tour! See for yourself what the academy is talking about!

Good thing I was at a party when I found out the Fruit Tree Tour
episode of the show Natural Heroes, had won an 
emmy, because it was time to celebrate! The 
award-winning show was based on our DVD Planting 
the Vision. The special episode aired on PBS 
across the nation. This award is a huge tribute 
to programs like Natural Heroes and the featured 
groups that are working for positive change. We 
hope many more people will see the show and be 
inspired to plant a tree in their community!

This spring Common Vision is running its fifth 
annual Fruit Tree Tour­a 20-city, 70-day tour 
planting over 1000 fruit trees at urban schools 
and community centers from Los Angeles to 
Sacramento. Traveling in veggie oil-powered 
caravan, 25-earth educators from Common Vision 
will teach students about earth stewardship, 
cooperation, and positivity through a day-long 
program that includes green theatre, drumming, 
dancing, storytelling, and earth-conscious hip-hop.
