Some legislation, like
healthcare reform, might take a little more work for the White House to push through, but other initiatives, like the White House farmers market, are happening virtually overnight. Less than a month ago President Obama revealed that he and the first lady were looking into
holding a farmers market outside the White House — and the plan's already come to fruition. At the opening of the
FreshFarm market yesterday, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack and Washington DC mayor Adrian Fenty spoke to a crowd of about 300 shoppers about the importance of eating healthy, local food.

Great! But didn't I read somewhere that the garden was toxic? Like something was spilled there previously? Just curious. Or is this just "A Farmer's Market" not the WH garden farmer's market? Eh, it's Friday!
