| During the second World War, gardeners on both sides of the Atlantic combatted food shortages and showed their patriotism by growing vegetable gardens. No matter the size of their yard, these "victory" gardens helped people eat well despite rationing and, just as important, gave them a sense of self-reliance and satisfaction at having participated in the war effort.
