The History and Promise of Victory Gardens [Zoom]

Presented by Gordon Clark, UVM Extension Master Gardener and Coordinator of the Vermont Victory Gardens project, “The History and Promise of Victory Gardens” is a pictorial history of one of the oldest and most enduring movements in American society. From its roots in the Progressive Era through WWI to its most famous flowering in WWII, “The History and Promise of Victory Gardens” uses photos, documents and vintage posters and artwork to chronicle the perennial re-emergence and re-invention of Americans’ desire to grow their own food in times of challenge – right up to the COVID pandemic of last year.
