Conner, Calissa and I were able to participate in Mormon Helping Hands this year. We went to Heather Farm in Walnut Creek and found huge mounds of bark with a bunch of shovels and wheelbarrows waiting for us. We were one of the first ones there so we started the process of shoveling bark into wheelbarrows, then taking it down the path and dumping it on different parts of the ground. After a while, we stopped to help do a little planting of small trees and plants but it was a TON of bark. I'm not exaggerating when I say I personally dumped about 100 loads of it and there were quite a few of us helping out.
We only got one picture on our way out but you can see some of the fruit (er, bark) of our labors. It was a beautiful day and it was nice to get out and do some service for the community.
