Homegrown Vegetables Will Help Win the War, 1941

Farm people of Caswell County, brought to a realization of the need of a constructive program for their county by committee work in the land use planning effort, have diced that the best contribution they can make for national defense on their farms is to increase the number and size of the home gardens on all farms.

Robert Lee Neal has been selected as chairman of the garden committee, with Mrs. John Buck as co-chairman, and the two of them have begun a rigorous campaign for more and better gardens throughout the county in 1941. Every farm family in the county has received this message from the two garden leaders: "The production of an adequate supply of vegetables and fruits for home use is more important to us now than at any time in the history of our country."
