During the US pre-election furore, I became aware of Michael Pollan's open letter to the next President, urging a focus on food policy. At the same time, I discovered the Eat the View campaign to turn the White House lawn into the White House Organic Farm. And then, just to make sure I got the message, London's mayor unveiled Capital Growth's 2012 project to create 2,012 new food producing gardens in the UK's capital using reclaimed / unused land and volunteer gardeners.

Now VegBox recipes, founded by food writer Clare Josa, has just announced on OOFFOO that they are offering free participation in a live webcast on December 2nd all about getting started growing your own.
