Download American Grown: The Story of the White House Kitchen Garden and Gardens Across America AudioBook Free
In Apr 2009, First Woman Michelle Obama planted a kitchen garden on the White House's South Grass. It is a garden with roots in the American history, stretching back to George Washington, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson, but it is also a garden very much made for America's future. As fresh vegetables, fruit, and natural remedies sprouted from the bottom, this White House Kitchen Garden inspired a new discussion all across the united states about the food we nourish our people and the impact it is wearing medical and well-being of our children. Now, in her first-ever e book, North american Grown, Mrs. Obama invites you inside the White House Kitchen Garden and stocks its inspiring report, from the first planting to the latest harvest.

Get an unprecedented behind-the-scenes check out every season of the garden's growth, with eye-catching original photographs that bring its report alive.
