Container Gardening at 60 Miles Per Hour

Who knew that you could container garden at 60 miles per hour? Well, there are two guys, Daniel Bowman Simon and Casey Gustowarow who are giving it a try. They are driving around the country in a bus (well actually two busses, one on top of the other) with a container garden farm on the top.

Why, you may ask, are they doing this? They call themselves, The Who Farm, aka the White House Organic Farm Project and they are trying to encourage the next President to turn the lawn of the White House into an organic farm.

I’m all for it. This may be the first step towards the appointment of a container gardening czar. Hmmm.....maybe I should send the transition team my resume.

Kerry,

Go for it!

The Who Farm sounds really interesting, where can I get more information on it?

Here’s the link. There’s a fun video that tells you more about what they’re up to.
