Roger Doiron, Founding Director of Kitchen Gardeners International, planted an organic vegetable garden smack in the middle of his front lawn in an effort to convince our next “Eater-in-Chief” to do the same. Roger put together a movie documenting the process and providing some interesting food production facts along the way.
If you’d like to join Roger in urging the next President to plant a vegetable garden at the White House, sign his petition at http://www.EatTheView.org.
Enjoy, and sing along:

I think you are working too hard. Try covering the lawn with compost, cardboard, then mulch, then plant. It’s called Permaculture, and it sure beats digging.

Yeah I did the permaculture thing and it worked pretty well.
