I'm stoked to announce an EPIC collab with ‪@ObamaFoundation‬
a FULL tour of the new garden landscapes at the upcoming Obama Center and a conversation with President Obama!

Myself and a few other awesome creators sat down with the President to speak about the philosophy behind the center, and of course I had a few questions about the garden spaces...

First off, from a raw gardening approach, it's awesome to see a civic project put edible gardens front and center. The Eleanor Roosevelt Fruit & Vegetable Garden being a true standout and aptly named, as Mrs. Roosevelt championed Victory Gardens, which provided up to 40% of our produce during WWII.

But even techniques like "nurse logs,” where they used logs from trees felled during construction to inoculate fresh soil with the local microbial flora, to me, showcased an advanced approach to garden spaces, all of which I'm excited to share with you in an upcoming video.

The center is OPEN and ready for you to check it out. If you're in the area, I recommend stopping by!
