Socialist Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) recently discovered the benefits of gardening, and she just can’t contain her excitement.
The social media maven said in a recent video that she was “shook” by the results of her garden after leaving for New York for two weeks for congressional recess.
“Oh my God you guys, I just checked on my community gardens lot and i was so nervous because i was in New York for two weeks for recess…look,” she says, panning to the garden.
“Oh my God look at this! It like…look at the collared greens. They’re huge!”
“I am shook. Like honestly, gardening, food that comes out of dirt…like it’s magic! This is so exciting!”
Unfortunately, her tomatoes didn’t make it.
RIP AOC’s tomatoes.

I wish the congresswoman cared about border security, growing the economy and other policies that will lift up the entire country as much as she cares about this garden .. ⬇️ pic.twitter.com/MKOULq5EKN
