  • Did you know?

    Founded in 1942, the Fenway Victory Gardens is one of the two remaining continuously-operating World War II Victory Gardens in the United States, and the only garden to have continued its operation in the same location as it was during the War. At their height, an estimated 20 million Victory Gardens were in existence supplying more than 40% of the fresh fruits and vegetables consumed in the United States.
