a victory garden

David and I, in an effort to conserve and save, are attempting to eat all local foods and nothing processed this year. This means baking our own breads, spending more time at the farmer's market and growing more food. All of which we are extremely excited about! This spring we're planning to turn much of the back yard into an edible landscape. The video above is from Eat the View which is a campaign to turn the white house lawn into a victory garden similar to the days of Eleanor Roosevelt. We want to encourage you to grow a garden as well and also please sign the petition at Eat the View to tell the Obama's you'd like to see a garden at the White House.
