Eat the View is a campaign to plant high-impact food gardens in high-profile places. We asked the Obamas to lead the way by replanting a kitchen garden on the First Lawn and they heard our call! Eat the View is coordinated by Kitchen Gardeners International, a Maine-based 501c3 nonprofit network of 10,000 gardeners from 100 countries who are inspiring and teaching more people to grow some of their own food. Since its launch in February 2008, Eat the View! has been featured in over 500 newspapers including the New York Times, International Herald Tribune, Wall Street Journal, Chicago Tribune, and Washington Post. Our videos The Garden of Eatin’ and “This Lawn is Your Lawn” video have been viewed thousands of times on the internet. The latter was chosen as one of the winners of the “Climate Matters” video contest and shown on national TV to an estimated audience of 50 million households. Eat the View also won the Grand Prize in the OnDayOne.org contest where citizens are helping to set a positive, global agenda for President Obama. Eat the View is first and foremost a people-powered campaign. 100,000 people have signed our White House Victory Garden petition on our website or on Facebook.
