What did people grow in victory gardens?

During World War I and World War II, people grew a variety of vegetables and fruits in victory gardens to support the war effort and alleviate food shortages. Common crops included tomatoes, carrots, beans, lettuce, and potatoes, as well as herbs and some fruits like berries. These gardens were often cultivated in backyards, community plots, and even on rooftops, promoting self-sufficiency and community spirit. The movement encouraged citizens to contribute to the war effort by supplementing their diets with homegrown produce.
