The harvest is in at the White House
“Are you ready to work really hard?”
“Are you ready to get dirty?”
That was the rallying cry from first lady Michelle Obama Thursday as she invited local school children to help her pick crops from the White House garden.
The crops are the bounty from the garden that Obama started in the spring to promote healthy eating .
And it’s frugal eating too.
“Do you know how much food has come out of this garden so far? Over 740 pounds of food have come out of this little piece of land,” Obama told the kids. The whole thing — from start to harvest — came in under $200, she added.
