First Lady Michelle Obama in the White House Vegetable Garden

This photograph of First Lady Michelle Obama was taken by White House photographer Chuck Kennedy on May 28, 2013. In the photograph, Mrs. Obama is seen harvesting vegetables with schoolchildren in the Kitchen Gardens. Mrs. Obama started the garden in 2009 with the hopes of educating school-age children about the values of healthy eating, often enlisting their help and using the harvested vegetables in the White House kitchen and for State Dinners. The Kitchen Garden is located on the South Lawn of the White House Grounds.
