“More cheese, please!” could be heard from the White House kitchen garden last week. But it wasn’t the dozens of elementary school students shouting, it was the first lady.
Mrs. Obama hosted local children for the third annual garden harvest as part of her Let’s Move! initiative to help youth lead healthy lifestyles. After picking a basket full of vegetables and digging up a few worms, the kids and the first lady dined on organic pizzas they made together.
The rest of the food collected at the harvest will be used at the upcoming State Dinner and donated to a local soup kitchen.
