Michelle Obama got a jump on the spring season by planting fruits and vegetables alongside local elementary school students in the White House Kitchen Garden.
According to ABC News, a flower section has also been designed to attract bees and butterflies.
The White House Kitchen garden, which is now in its sixth year, was the seed of what ultimately grew to be Michelle Obama's "Let's Move!" campaign.
The students planted a variety of fruits and vegetables, including collard greens, rhubarb, onions, strawberries, raspberries, and a new addition, a paw paw tree.
The First Lady worked alongside the students, helping them lift a watering can when its weight grew too heavy and planting some of the larger flowers.
Before leaving, Michelle Obama added that she was looking forward to seeing the students again at harvest time when they pick up, take it out and eat what they have planted.
