Join us for a fascinating look into the history of Victory Gardens in Lambton County.
Our Lambton County Archivist will take you back in time to explore how these patriotic vegetable plots transformed backyards and vacant lots during World War I and World War II. Discover the stories of Lambton County residents who grew their own food to support the war effort, supplement their rations, and boost morale on the home front. We'll examine how these gardens freed up vital transportation resources for the military and fostered a powerful sense of community and self-sufficiency. The program will also touch on the modern resurgence of Victory Gardens, connecting the past to present-day concerns about food security and sustainability. Don't miss this opportunity to uncover a local story of resilience and community spirit!
