All those online petitions do sometimes work. The White House is going to take out 1,000 square feet of lawn and plant a vegetable garden. I remember when people were criticizing the San Francisco victory garden as a photo op, my thought was, well, maybe, but it’s exactly the kind of photo op we need. It will be great to see photos of the U.S. president weeding the White House vegi garden.

Here’s a link to Michael Pollen’s long NY Times Letter to the Next Farmer in Chief from last October, which includes a call for the next president to make a vegetable garden.
