From June of 2008:
"All the cool kids are food gardening - or at least they're thinking about it," says the blogger at the Denver Post. And the "cool kid" who's thinking about food gardening is Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper, who says that he and his wife are considering turning some of their huge lawn into a vegetable garden. Here you see him demonstrating support for the nonpolluting Neuton lawnmower by entering the Neuton race, billed as the "Mow Down Pollution" event at a Denver park.
We'll check in with the good mayor's office to see how it's going this year.
