Agribusiness firms not on board with the First Lady's White House vegetable garden
Hmm, quite an interesting development here. Michelle Obama is certainly in a bind when it comes to the politics of the White House vegetable garden; she could have her garden treated with conventional agricultural chemicals and fertilizers and be spurned by the Alice Waterses of the world, or she can go the organic route, as she did, and get letters of protest from agribusiness groups, as in the link above. Can't the school kids just have their garden in peace?
