Just came across some news that an organic kitchen garden has been started at the White House. One of the goals of this garden and the message from this act is one against obesity, according to a WH press release.
A layout of the garden can be found on the White House blog. I am also adding a small video clip (courtesy cnn.com) below which shows school kids helping the First lady working on creating the garden patch.
While cnn is reporting that this is an organic garden, I did not find any clear information on the White House website nor did I hear a confirmation to that end from the First lady's video remarks. If someone else verified information that the new garden will be organic, it would be great. Thanks.
