"Eat the View" Petition

Kitchen gardens instead of lawn!

Hi, folks,

KUOW had their local garden experts on this morning and one mentioned this great campaign to get the next president to dig up the White House lawn and plant a garden for their use and for local food banks.  I think it's a great idea.

Where can we do that locally?  Maybe the Esplanade?  Fireman's Park?  Wright Park?  Maybe some local landscapers could specialize in kitchen garden plots for busy homeowners with space, desire for eating locally, but no time to maintain them.  Beats mowing lawns and spraying ornamentals!  I'm available to work for anyone wanting to do that.

Check out this website and sign the petition!

See you Friday at Frost Park.
