Uncle Sam had a green thumb? Digging into the history of victory gardens 🍅🌽🥕

Victory Gardens emerged during World War I as a way to ease the strain on the nation's food supply and foster solidarity among citizens.

Citizens were encouraged to grow their own fruits and vegetables to ensure a steady food supply for both the home front and the troops fighting overseas.

The movement continued during World War II, when the United States faced severe food shortages due to rationing and the need to support a growing military force. 

Victory Gardens became a symbol of community, patriotism and self-sufficiency, and by 1944, an estimated 20 million gardens were cultivated across the nation.

The U.S. government heavily promoted the Victory Garden movement through various initiatives and campaigns. The Department of Agriculture's Extension Service provided guidance and resources, such as instructional pamphlets on gardening techniques, to help citizens establish and maintain their gardens and plots.

The government also created a range of promotional materials, including posters, films, and radio programs, to encourage citizens to participate in the effort.

up early and grumpy about it, but I started chopping cilantro and scallions and for whatever reason the crunch and sudden greenness of the smell singlehandedly convinced me that the world is worth living in. never had that experience at 6am dead sober before.

#me casually drinking coffee and chopping vegetables while vegetable stock simmers on the stove #only to be struck by the inexhaustible beauty of the world: #well damn. #celestial emporium of benevolent knowledge

Another one (plus updated the previous one :)) part 2 of making me and my siblings into demon slayers now that my brother has finally watched the show! It’s my sister and me! With much better art and much better design than 4 years ago, hopefully

For my sister, I leaned pretty heavily into medicine, giving her a role more similar to that of Shinobu within the Corps: not primarily a fighter, and helping treat wounds sustained by other slayers in battle as a healer. My sister is, in the real world, a doctor, and I have massive respect for the amount of hard work she’s put into getting to where she is now. She’s such an inspiration honestly <3

#kimetsu no yaiba #demon slayer #kny oc #my sister is so funny actually #at 26 years old she said to me with the straightest face. ‘when I eat vegetables #’sometimes I feel a bit like a cow. moo.’ #LIKE SISTER DEAREST OF MINE I LOVE YOU BUT WHERE DID THIS COME FROM LMAO #she deserves all the love in the world <3 #it’s very interesting because in a sense she kind of raised me but she treats me more like an equal now than my parents ever will #it’s nice to be treated as an equal in young adulthood you know? like she’s always taken me serious even when I’m ranting about things #that literally no one else would be interested in #so I wanted to convey in her design her kindheartedness but also a bit of her silliness

Does... chocolate exist in wof? Weird question I know but I'm curious. Since candy to some level exists in wof (refer back to book 11), but does chocolate exist... or are wof dragons like dogs and they'll die if they consume it.

#But this is also questioning whether or not cacao trees or something similar to it exists in the world too. #Idk #I'm just curious since pretty much all of the wof food we now to exist are just meat and some form of vegetation #which fair. #but I'm curious to know whether or not they've developed to the point of having some processed food yet #Like can the dragons make bread. #CAN THEY TUI??? #kos speaks

keeping these asks in a heart shaped locket that i clench from time to time dearly

#also idk what the last ones tastes like but it sounds good #but ive consumed that noodle vegetable soup many many times #one of the most meals in the entire world

Cool old lunchbox. I really would have bought it if it was useable, but I couldn't clean it.

A musical lighter with Mount Fuji on it. It was in a case so we didn't get to hear what song it was

Bok choy

All the mortar and pestles in the world

And a hornets nest for 85 whole american dollars for some reason.

#man ive never seen an eating disorder kill someone else besides a parent infecting a child but my nana is really trying #shes like 1000% orthotexic. will not eat anything not filled with vegetables or fat. and my grandpa is 87yo with a heart condition currentl #in the hospital for covid bc thry went to Christmas church and dont believe in being vaccinated and my dad is so frustrated #bc he knows his mom is not gonna give his dad hearty foods. he needs to eat like protein shakes and meat and ice cream. anything thats not #her cooking which sucks on top of being extremely healthy. except its not healthy bc they dont eat a balanced diet #so its my nanas eating disorder killing her husband and shes so fucking frustrating. im like 99% sure she has obsessive compulsive #personally disorder bc she fits to a T and has zero insight. she may have full on 0cd bc talking to my dad he has more obvious 0cd #compulsions than i do. he used to say phrases before going to bed and would take 2 steps across the floor to prevent bad things from #happening. so like im pretty sure my nana is where i get my perfectionism and 0cd. god. i wish i could express how fucked up she is #like my dad said at least he had a stable home to grow up in but like she has zero sympathy for other people. cannot look past herself. wil #not wear a mask bc she doesnt care enough abt other ppl. my dad was like: u would not have survived in that house. which is fair bc i am #barely keeping it together coming from a stable home with two sympathetic parents who i know love me #and like its sad that they're suffering the effects of buying into the fox news bullshit and its killing them #but also. genuinely. i think theyre not very good ppl. theyre the type of people who think they're better bc they're religious. white. and #thin. and theyre not better thsn anyone. their grandchildren cant stand them. well cant stand her at least. papa is just quite so its hard #to say what hes thinking. apparently he was confused last night and saying something about eating dinner on the golf course. which sounds #nicer thsn being in the hospital lol. ugh. he seems not long for this world tbh. may he pass peacefully to b with his 1st wife who died of #brain cancer at age like 20 or something. so it goes. bleh. how many funerals are intended for me in the next 5 years? hopefully none but #that seems improbable with the unspoken drain circling that seems to b going on in this family. old age and like almost 10 years of cancer #defying the stats but for how much longer? #i dunno. its just so weird to watch these things happen and not talk about it directly to the other ppl who see it #i worry that ill come off as too callose or inappropriate bc i have that tendency when something bad is happening but thats everyone else #excuse? idk i just feel like its better to talk abt things #unrelated #ed mention #i tell u this so i can say these things to someone and also bc if i were u. i would like to hear the drama #bc im nosey and i assume other r too ;-]

Is it confession time? I feel like it might be confession time…

I have this habit - I think many of us do - of only half glancing at usernames when I first come across them, and just making them into a word in my head. And then I say that word every time I see that username, therefore reinforcing my own believe. And eventually (though sometimes never) something makes me stop and actually read a username, letter for letter, and go oooooh.. 😯

I know NOW that @gardenerian is Gardener Ian. But I didn’t know that for the first three to five months of following Mel. And two weeks ago I went to Pizza Express and I realised where the word I was saying in my head every time I saw one of Mel’s posts actually came from…

I’m afraid to say that for a pretty long time there lovely Mel, you were a vegan pizza in my head… 🤷🏽‍♂️

#but like… at least it’s with tomato #and it’s pretty healthy #full of all kinds of vegetables #I feel that at least spiritually Gardener Ian would actually approve… right? #usernames are a funny thing. especially in a world made of all lower cases. #Gardener Ian #does NOT equal #Giardiniera #sorry about that Mel #hope it makes you smile #you’re lovely #I would nom you up like a pizza if I could #monch monch monch

While it doesn't directly correspond to a particular location, the ground in this card strongly resembles that of File City from Digimon World.

looking at the suvi arc 3 art like it's a riddle i need to solve.

her hair's been reverted to its (un)natural white. her outfit's all black and patterned head to toe in stars. man in black? pilgrim under the stars?

cards on the table show the king of diamonds on top and the ace of diamonds poking out the bottom. diamonds patterned into the desk and carpet. king... of night? diamonds... stars?

the only flashes of red (childhood colour) (ame colour) being the cards, the crystal ball on the shelf, and... the vial of blood? dripping from her hand?

oh i've got it! @quiddie

suvi's making a blood pact with the man in black. the title of the campaign is changing to the warlock, the witch, and the wild one.

...joking

............. (i think)

#also it looks like there's a plant or something on the left hand shelf #which i'd write off as set dressing if it weren't for orima #and also general wizard aversion to real vegetation #unfortunately wizards are lawn apologists #they have plastic plants in their foyers #worlds beyond number #twtwatwo #suvirin kedberiket #the wizard the witch and the wild one #quiddie #styx speaks
