Who Will Be the First White House Farmer?

The United States has a White House chef . . . and now is the time for a White House Farmer.

Everyone, from your family and friends to our First Family and their guests, needs to know who grew their food and how it was grown.

There are hundreds of knowledgeable, passionate farmers out there who could fill this post, and we encourage you to nominate your favorite one.

The fact that there is more attention being paid to reconnecting the First Family with the land is nothing but a good thing. They want the most nutritious and energy efficient food don't they? Imagine if they added some goats to help trim the grass!

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.
