Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack is urging Americans to start People's Gardens in their communities and to register their gardens in the new People's Garden database. The database enables USDA partners to showcase their People's Gardens on an interactive map. This past year, thousands of USDA employees and partners heeded Vilsack's call to give back to their communities by volunteering their time to participate in the department-wide People's Garden initiative.
Those who enter their People's Gardens into the database will be able to describe each garden, identify who is involved¸ where it is located as well as attach photos and add the contact information for their partners. For those who start a People's Garden, they can ask to have a People's Garden sign shipped to them.
