The Eat the View campaign to launch a national Victory Garden movement beginning with a new one on the White House lawn is making progress! We invite all the good folks from the Change.org community to roll up their sleeves with us and help get this garden dug in a way that will inspire millions of new healthy food gardens across the country and throughout the world.

Congratulations, Roger and all the supporters!! The first step is happening - a vegetable garden will be planted at the White House!! And CBS News gives you/us credit!
March 18, 2009 11:57 AM 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.

A variety of organic food and sustainable agriculture advocates have been pressing the Obamas to plant such a garden.
