Title: historical vegetable garden plans or layouts.
Post by: historygardening on October 17, 2024, 20:41:44
I am looking for diagrams of historical vegetable
garden plans and layouts from books,magazine, pamphlets. 
if know a source of such diagram please post it, the website
you found it or post the bibliographic source where is can be found.
I already have copies of the ones in the WW2 dig for victory leaflets
so please don't post them. my goal is to find ones that I have no seen yet.
so far I collected over 200+ from 5 countries  between 1880-2024. 
                                                      hope you can help.

you might be viewing wrong in pdf since it downloads as two pages.

There was not just a UK Dig for Victory campaign, but also in several other countries.  They were called Victory Gardens.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victory_garden
