The Victory Gardens of WWI and WWII were established to reduce pressure on the public food supply.
These "kitchen gardens" and community gardens were established by families, friends, organizations and neighborhoods to feed themselves and their communities.
By 1944, over 20 million Victory Gardens produced 40% of all the fruits and vegetables in the USA.
