It is a great idea - here is a double page spread of an age special from last year - it might be a bit difficult to read but the picture tells 1000 words. I can't really see Hambleton St like that for a while! A fruit tree is an excellent idea. http://www.wholistic.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/sustainability-street-age-story.pdf Hey Mum,

After your suggestion, of making better use of our nature strips, I was thinking it would be nice for the residents in our street to offset their carbon used by overseas travel by planting many different fruit trees on our nature strips. The house closest would be the main carer of the new fruit trees and make sure they have enough water while getting established, then everyone in the street could share the fruit.
