White House Kitchen Garden, Trump Administration
This photograph, taken by Matthew D'Agostino for the White House Historical Association on April 22, 2019, shows the White House Kitchen Garden as it appeared during the administration of Donald Trump. Vegetables including lettuce, broccoli, kale, and cabbage were grown in the garden. The White House Kitchen Garden was established by First Lady Michelle Obama in 2009 to supply food for the First Family and inspire everyday citizens to grow their own nutritious produce. As of 2019, the garden supplied fruits, vegetables, and herbs totaling approximately 2,000 pounds per year to the White House Kitchen; food not used by the White House was donated to local charities. This photograph was taken during the annual White House Easter Egg Roll, which was held on the South Lawn and Ellipse.
