Founding Gardeners--powerful insights from Andrea Wulf


Founding Gardeners. The Revolutionary Generation, Nature, and the Shaping of the American Nation © Andrea Wulf 20131
This paper is based on my book the Founding Gardeners (2011), which examines the creation of the American nation and the lives of George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison through the lens of gardens, landscapes, nature and agriculture. Vegetable plots, ornamental plants, landscapes and forests played a crucial role in America’s struggle for national identity and in the lives of the founding fathers.2 Golden cornfields and endless rows of cotton plants became symbols for America’s economic independence from Britain; towering trees became a reflection of a strong and vigorous nation; native species were imbued with patriotism and proudly planted in gardens, while metaphors drawn from the natural world brought plants and gardening into politics.


She speaks about washington wanted only US plants in his native garden.

do not use the seeds of corporate greed and loss of biodiversity.
Standardized people stuck in boxes placed their by eating habits.

Stuck in the pizza box is our heirloom seed freedom-

pizza box a powerful image--

Gardening as politics: Digging the Founding Gardeners

America's Founding Fathers knew the importance of gardening and the environment. Today's efforts — urban farming, composting, even drought-tolerant yards — echo their ideals.

As America's gardeners dig, plant, weed and grow lettuce, beans and tomatoes in their vegetable plots this summer, they are part of a tradition that harks back to the beginnings of the United States. Just by working on a compost pile this weekend, you'll be in good historical company.
