Agrarian of the Week: The Victory Garden.
The television show, not the World War Two institution from which it takes its name.
Somewhat quirky and odd, the long-running show commenced in 1979 and was hosted by the late James Underwood Crockett originally. I recall it from the Roger Swain era, however, which apparently from the mid 1980s to 2002, which surprises me as I recall watching it with my father, and not thereafter. He died in the early 1990s. Swain, with a huge red beard and suspenders was ahead of his time in the hipster movement, held a PhD in biology, so he knew his stuff. It apparently ceased production in 2010.
One interesting thing I'll note is the name, The Victory Garden, which takes its name from the gardens people were urged to plant in World War One and World War Two to counter food shortages. While both wars were obviously horrific, this aspect of the home front remains fondly remembered, and therefore the name is familiar.
