AGRICULTURE SECRETARY VILSACK PROCLAIMS AUGUST 23-29 AS NATIONAL COMMUNITY GARDENING WEEK

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6, 2009 - Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack today encouraged Americans to connect with the land, the food it grows and their local communities by proclaiming August 23-29, National Community Gardening Week. A community garden is an opportunity to educate everyone about from where food comes, whether that is a Farmers Market or a garden, and is important to increasing generations of healthy eaters.
