Dr. Bob (front) takes time out for a photo, while Jacob Holloway and Matthew Kelly catch up on digging. Hot and dry is the weather of the day, as the dirt blows the still unprotected soil around. Mulch will soon be added to hold the moisture in the soil. Nadine Straittof MAREH and Ryan Norman of the Delta Garden Study rake the raised beds flat while a volunteer shovels in forground.

Jacob Holloway and Jill Zartman of FoodCorps measure out the raised beds. Jacob Holloway learns how to stake-out plots from Jill Zartman of FoodCorps. Ryan Norman of the Delta Garden Study reviews progress, while Dr. Bob shovels dirt for raised beds.
