White House Vegetable Garden

Obama should start a very public White House vegetable garden. I am seeing this idea springing up in more and more places. TransFARM the White House Lawn :: An Organic Garden for the White House,
Two Peace Corps volunteers decided to write a letter to Obama and suggest that he establish an organic “Hope Garden” at the White House, and of course hire them to manage it.
They are part of a growing movement of advocates for a White House vegetable garden, and why not? The Obama family will have a bigger lawn than most of us, they like vegetables, and we all should be planting a little bit to eat local and eat healthy.

Go read their letter.

Here are some other sites advocating a White House garden:
