Description
In 2016, Common Ground asked the people of Exeter to tell their stories about the city's trees. Tree tales is the result, a collection is the result, a collection of memories, artwork, photographs, songs and poetry about Exeter's extraordinary canopy. It is both a celebration of this one city's urban silva and a wider reflection of the cultural importance of our trees today.Discover the distinctive history of the Lucombe oak, of the Royal Wilding apple and the city's own orchards. Learn abut Nutting Day and the Heavitree Yew, as well as the meaning of the 'Octopus Tree' , the 'Pirate ship' and the 'Tree of Life.' This is an important and personal gathering of voices from different people across Exeter. Tree Tales puts the city's trees firmly on the map as part of its civic heritage.
