Victory Gardens were established during WWI and WWII in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and Germany to encourage people to grow their own food. By May 1943, there were 18 million Victory Gardens in the United States alone!
Today, only two Victory Gardens remain active from the WWII era in the US: the Fenway Victory Gardens in Boston, and the Dowling Community Garden right here in Minneapolis!
