Today's the Day! New White House Garden Started

WWII-era garden poster.

As RW&G readers know, Michelle Obama is overseeing the creation of a new White House vegetable garden today (Update: plan is here). So, I'm putting up this WWII-era poster in celebration of the reunion of history, patriotism and self-sufficiency in the face of modern adversity.

I'd like to ask that if you're enthusiastic about this development, that you make an effort to sign the EatTheView.org petition in gratitude to the Obamas. You can sign it here or on Facebook.

If you'd like to offer the Obamas a bit of advice and encouragement, please view this entry and make your own comment.
