White House Garden Seedlings Being Planted Today

I hear the White House is planting its vegetable garden today, putting in lettuce, kale, collards, onions and shallots, fennel, and other seedlings, including a few from Thomas Jefferson's estate in Monticello. This might even include a fig tree, which does well in the mid-Atlantic region. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack should be on hand too.
