ABC News' Brian Hartman Reports: President Obama's latest shovel-ready project is close to home -- in fact, right in his own yard. In an effort to promote healthy eating, the first family will be planting a vegetable garden right on the White House grounds.
ABC News' Ann Compton and Sunlen Miller report that the new White House vegetable garden will be dug up and planted on the South grounds of the White House -- near the fountain but out of view of the main house.
Though the 16-acre complex is maintained by the National Park Service, one worker who preferred to remain anonymous assured ABC News that National Park Service staff won't do the sowing and planting. The White House residence staff will handle that.

Thanks for the good summation of Monsanto/NewWorldOrder farm plans. God help us if we want to plant some lettuce.

Right. The whole point of a garden is to do the work yourself, right? So they’re planning a garden in order to - do what?

Will it be adjacent to the new outhouse complete with half-moon logo on the door and the Sear's catalogue on the floor?

The only way to get either of them near that garden will be to bait it with cameras.
