A dim open-sided tent at night lit by long tube lights hung from poles. Many people in white or light head coverings and aprons work at large steel pots and vessels on the ground, preparing food for a relief kitchen. Pots of chopped vegetables, green produce, and sacks of grain sit on blue tarps. Several seated people in plastic chairs and in mixed clothing, some in orange, look on. A small flame burns near the ground. Striped awning fabric runs along the side of the tent.
