victory gardens  

Définition

  • The campaign to encourage Victory Gardens was probably the most successful home front effort waged by the U.S. government during World War II. Victory Gardens were originally intended to supplement the food produced by commercial growers in order to prevent shortages around the country. They became important morale-building and unifying weapons as well, providing emotional support for many Americans, who felt that their participation in the Victory Gardens program helped the country's war effort.
