When war required sacrifices
I ran into this image while doing some design research in the Northwestern University Library WWII Poster Collection.
Coincidentally a friend just told me that at the height of World War II 40% of produce consumed in the US was grown in Victory Gardens!

I remember our little Victory Garden. It was in an empty lot across the street from our apartment building. Tiny little carrots, pulled from the ground too soon, by little helper me! Yes, we did get our produce from those little plots, even in a big city.
