White
House Kitchen Garden
In this from-the-archives edition of Inside the White House, First
Lady Michelle Obama and White House Chef Sam Kass tell the story of the first
kitchen garden on White House grounds since Eleanor Roosevelt's World War II
Victory Garden. The garden -- planted in the spring of 2009 with the help of
local elementary school children -- is part of the First Lady’s
commitment to a healthier generation of kids.
Since ground-breaking and
initial tilling in March, we've been documenting the progress of the first
garden on White House grounds since Eleanor Roosevelt's Victory Garden during
World War II. This new garden was planted with the help of
local elementary school children and has yielded a constant supply fresh
produce for the First Family and White House events. Hear and see the story of
the garden first-hand from First Lady Michelle Obama and White House chef Sam
Kass.
