First lady Melania Trump helped children from organizations in the District of Columbia harvest vegetables and plant a fall crop in the White House garden on Friday.
The “White House Kitchen Garden” and the tradition of inviting local children to take part in planting and harvesting was started by former First Lady Michelle Obama
Melania Trump is continuing the tradition, this year with children from the Girls and Boys Club of Greater Washington and FBR Clubhouse.
Trump greeted the children, one of whom asked if she was Melania Trump.
“Yes, I am the first lady for those of you who don’t know me,” Trump said.
“I just want to welcome you the White House and thank you for coming and helping me to harvest and plant the vegetables in the beautiful garden,” Trump said. “So I think we will have a lot of fun.”
Trump, who donned red gloves that matched perfectly with her red country-style shirt, told the children they would be given samples of honey from the White House beehives to share with their families before joining them to pull up bright orange carrots and pick vine-ripened red tomatoes.

What???
No, Miss Michelle wasn't much in the field. She stay mainly in the house.
“Some chickens and a hog pen would be awesome. Perhaps a milk barn, etc....lol”
And name it The White House Heritage Homestead.
Have it staffed by re-enacters and FFA/4-H members as tour guides!
You are a freaking genius!
HaHa HeHe HoHo!
“No, Miss Michelle wasn’t much in the field. She stay mainly in the house.”
I see what you did there!
Naughty Naughty!
hee hee...sssshhhhh...see my tagline.
If you watch the video....what a beautiful garden.
Our First Lady makes even plaid look good!
I watched most of the youtube. 2 token white kids and the rest about a dozen are black. All are wearing tshirts that say Staff on the back. So are they volunteers or what? Maybe they are getting some bucks for volunteering because they are disadvantaged. Just sayin’ Michelle set up a foundation and bankroll to keep this up. Another way to “gibsmedat?” Sorry to sound jaded but most of the time that is the rest of the story.
Those are fall plantings for spring harvesting rather than fall to winter crops.
Nope. Our Melania is always stunning. So much grace and style, yet quite the trooper when need be.
Just a lovely woman inside and out.
Not a doubt in my mind that Melania has been the best decision Trump ever made in his life.
That would be somehow racist.
So did mine, it didn’t take very well.
“That would be somehow racist.”
What isn’t these days?
I say EMBRACE IT.
Let them show how small, stupid and petty they are.
Embrace it until the leftist coalition explodes into dozens of hateful pieces that can’t agree on what day of the week it is.
While they are fighting amongst themselves we can help POTUS Trump MAGA.
Collards!
The child labor abuses of this Administration are sickening.
First Trump has a 10 year old kid mow the lawn and now Melania uses children to plant crops.
It’s an abomination.
