Digging
Doug Bailey and Corey Rogers digging a hole to plant a
dogwood.  Students are taught the proper way to dig
planting holes--3 times the diameter of the root-ball
at the correct height.



Prevention
Some of the students removing nails and peeling back the
burlap from the rootball to prevent the roots from drying out
through "wicking."
