grow tomatoes (read all 9 entries…)
Victory Garden 17 months ago

Someone from the neighborhood stopped to talk to me the other day as I was gardening. She tasted the basil and the tomatoes. She told me that what I had was a Victory Garden, like the ones that were grown during World War 2

Another man came by today and talked to me about my garden. He started off by saying “someone knows how to have fun!”. He said that seeing people growing their own food gave him hope for the future. He talked about how all of the others in the neighborhood were just wasting their water growing ornamentals. I agree with him. He is an officer at a church down the street and said that he talks to the members of the church about growing their own food as well.
