Girls plant seedlings on stony ground

In the foreground three girls in short-sleeved dresses kneel close together on dry ground strewn with pebbles and small green plants, pressing and scooping the soil with their hands; further up the slope other figures bend to the ground. The source speaks of clearing ground for the planting of a forest near Ramat Rahel and of children working around the plants. Planting trees on the bare hills around Jerusalem was one of the undertakings of the Jewish National Fund.
