So where do I even begin? How do I even plant my first seed? Let's check in with our resident expert, Head Gardener Eric Jackson, to find out.

“Victory Gardens...that’s the answer! Men and women are discovering that the closer they get to the good earth, and the more they drink in fresh air and sunshine, the more courage and strength they have to face today’s problems and meet them like true Americans.”

These encouraging words come to us from the past, World War II to be exact, when the U.S. Office of Civilian Defense pleaded with the American public to grow their own Victory Gardens to support the war effort. Many of us are turning to the land during this time of great need. Old Salem is here to give you all the resources you need to cultivate a successful Victory Garden in your own backyard.
