| | Common Ground http://www.commonground.org.uk
Common Ground is internationally recognised for playing a unique role in the arts and environmental fields, distinguished by the linking of nature with culture, focussing upon the positive investment people can make in their own localities, championing popular democratic involvement, and by inspiring celebration as a starting point for action to improve the quality of our everyday places. We offer ideas, information and inspiration through publications and projects such as Field Days, Parish Maps, Flora Britannica, Apple Day, Community Orchards, Tree Dressing Day, Confluence and the campaign for local distinctiveness.
In orchards, we and nature together have created an exuberant and a secret landscape, a treasury of genetic diversity and a repository of culture.
Orchards are a wise way of sharing the land – a positive gift to those who follow. See: The Apple Source Book, by Sue Clifford and Angela King with Philippa Davenport for Common Ground (Hodder & Stoughton, 2007) and Community Orchards Handbook (Common Ground, 2008).
