From video to victory garden, part 3

Environmentalists and foodies are calling for an organic garden at the White House and using videos to champion their cause.

Wed, Jan 28 2009 at 2:16 PM EST

Set to the music of Woody Guthrie and Bruce Springsteen, the video This Lawn is Your Lawn shows photos Roger Doiron (and his boys) planting a garden in the front of lawn of their white house.
 
With text interspersed between the photos that say things like “The White House is our house and the “First Lawn” is our lawn. We pay the White House grocery and landscaping bills,” this video urges the Obamas to plant a garden on the grounds of the White House.
 

This is another video from Kitchen Gardeners International, and in the end it asks viewers to sign the online petition at Eattheview.org.
