Obamas re-instate the White House vegetable patch

This is fun to see – Michelle Obama and a bunch of schoolchildren have dug up a section of the lawn and re-planted the White House kitchen garden. The last time anything was grown there was Eleanor Roosevelt’s garden during the Second World War. Hopefully it’ll inspire people to re-connect with the earth a little, try growing their own, and remember where their food comes from.

I expect it’ll only be so long before Jimmy Carter’s solar panels are replaced too, after Reagan unceremoniously took them down.
