A photograph of men planting a sapling on bare, reddish-brown earth beside a wire fence on a hillside. Four adults kneel or bend around a young tree in a hole: one in a white shirt and dark trousers with glasses crouches at left, another in a white shirt bends over the sapling, an older man in a white cap and light blue shirt holds the tree, and a man in white kurta and white dhoti crouches at right. Behind them a standing man in a white shirt and khaki trousers with a lanyard necklace gestures toward the planting, and a young man in a white shirt holds up a long white banner reading Nithyananda Youth Foundation with a portrait of a smiling woman in an orange garment and rudraksha-style beads, labelled Paramahamsa Nithyananda, and a Salem Day 144 Social Services caption. A barefoot boy in a dark t-shirt watches at left, and more men in white stand at right. Shrubs and dry grass fill the background.
