Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The social history of American cities would not be complete without a full account of the rise of community open spaces. Lawson does exactly this by providing a compelling and poetic account of the history and making of urban gardens. Combining solid scholarship with engaging images of the gardens and stories of their makers, this book sheds new light on the value of urban open space. More important, it explains why community gardens need to stand alongside city parks as permanent open spaces. Essential reading for community developers and landscape architects as well as anyone who ventures outside, enthusiasm and shovel in hand, to improve their local environment.—Mark Francis, author of Urban Open Space and Village Homes "The definitive history of the past hundred years of America's experience with community gardens. A labor of love by a garden activist, the book appears at a most appropriate time—today our city dwellers and suburbanites are retreating onto carpets of passive open space tended by homeowner associations and lawn care outfits. Lawson thoughtfully analyzes the weaknesses of community gardens when used as a response to social crises and, by contrast, investigates community gardens as an alternative to today's managed care of open space. Her history clearly presents a way of community living that we can elect if we choose her wisdom."—Sam Bass Warner, Jr, author of To Dwell Is to Garden "An important book about how the urban gardening movement is transforming our landscape and reconnecting us to the land."—Alice Waters, Owner, Chez Panisse

Book excerpt: Climate activist and farmer Acadia Tucker fell in love with container gardening after glimpsing its potential to produce food-lots of food. By applying select growing practices, and managing for square inches rather than square feet, she has come up with instructions for growing a small-scale farm on your patio, your stoop, or in? your dining room. If what you want is a garden big enough to line a windowsill, she's got you covered there, too. Tiny Victory Gardens profiles 21 container-friendly crops, and includes recipes for cultivating bountiful gardens, with names like Tiny Herb Garden, Salsa Fresca, and Beans, Bees, and Butterflies, It outlines how to find the right containers (there are wrong ones), identify prime tiny real estate, make food gardens beautiful, and raise crops all year long. Tucker describes how to maximize the environmental impact of growing food in pots. She offers tips on attracting pollinators, shows how to build microbe-rich living soil, and explains ways to ditch harmful pesticides and fertilizers. Her goal is to make it easier for anyone with access to a patch of sun to grow food, no backyard required. This is the third book Tucker has written for Stone Pier Press's citizen gardening series, which highlights how to garden in ways that are good for the planet. Book jacket.

This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gardening as a Means of Correlating Home and School Activities War gardens has, during the last two years, become a famil iar and even intimate term with the masses of our American pe0p1e. Uncle Sam sent out the warning note. Word was passed from family to family that we must not only conserve, but we must produce. Every garden that furnished fresh food for a family made it possible to send other foods, most needed, to our soldiers over there. American women, who in time of peace, indulged in ease and luxury, now took to gardening as a means of doing their bit and gradually others went into it because it became the thing. Many of these will remain in it because they have tasted the joys of gardening and because it has proven its value. War gardens will become permanent as Victory Gardens.' War gardening has given a tremendous impulse to school garden work. For many years leading educators and garden ex perts have realized the value of home and school gardens, but the development has come slowly and nothing but a war could have given it the place that it now occupies. Much has been written and said of its value educationally, but the 'results of the war gardens have furnished arguments in its favor that are funda mental and conclusive. Never before have school gardens been so much in demand and as a part of the school curriculum. The school garden movement owes much to the response of the five million boys and girls to Uncle Sam's call for volunteers in the United States School Garden Army. This united force of boys and girls did much to increase the food production of our nation last year.. At the same time it has shown What a tremendous force organized garden work is for good.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes, to move forward, we must look back. Gardening activity during American involvement in World War I (1917-1919) is vital to understanding current work in agriculture and food systems. The origins of the American Victory Gardens of World War II lie in the Liberty Garden program during World War I. This book examines the National War Garden Commission, the United States School Garden Army, and the Woman's Land Army (which some women used to press for suffrage). The urgency of wartime mobilization enabled proponents to promote food production as a vital national security issue. The connection between the nation's food readiness and national security resonated within the U.S., struggling to unite urban and rural interests, grappling with the challenges presented by millions of immigrants, and considering the country's global role. The same message--that food production is vital to national security--can resonate today. These World War I programs resulted in a national gardening ethos that transformed the American food system.
