Ending childhood obesity within a generation is the central goal of the First Lady’s Let’s Move! initiative.

This summer, we've had the privilege to hear from all sorts of experts in the Peoples' Garden at USDA, as part of the Healthy Garden Workshops series. We've learned about gardening various delicious vegetables, controlling pests, and preparing garden-grown foods. This afternoon, visitors to the USDA tents on the National Mall were treated to a really interesting presentation on pollination.
