Ask the Obamas to Plant a Garden!


The Eat the View campaign:
"Eat the View!" is a campaign to urge the Obamas to replant a large organic Victory Garden on the First Lawn with the produce going to the White House kitchen and to local food pantries.
has made it to Facebook:

About this Petition:

This petition drive is part of the Eat the View campaign (EatTheView.org) which is seeking to to plant healthy food gardens in high-profile, high-impact places. What better, more symbolic place to start than at the White House, "America's House."

The Desired Outcome of this Petition:

A garden at the White House that will inspire millions of Americans and people around the world to grow some healthy, tasty, and environmentally-responsible food of their own.

Imagine a nice veggie garden right on the steps of the White House. Instead of a symbol of "hard times", it will be one of hope and renewal, reconnecting the First Family with the land that supplies what we eat and drink.
