The New York Botanical Garden is following its Edible Garden thing of a couple of years back with a Family Garden, aimed at schoolchildren. And it has made it to the network news. No information on whether the tykes are being brainwashed about heirlooms and sustainable agriculture. But I hope so.
LATER: And Michelle Obama gets in on the act too.
Hi,
Actually, the Family Garden turned 20 years old this year. The new thing that’s happening at the Family Garden this year is we’re doing Edible Garden-style cooking demonstrations at the Family Garden for the kids. Thanks for the shoutout though! We really appreciate it.

Many thanks for setting us right. Sorry about getting the facts wrong. Anyway, it sounds like a hoot.
