Grow It Yourself
Carrots, cabbages, onions, tomatoes, and potatoes line up under a fan of watering-can spray, roots and all. The victory garden pitch, still persuasive in a kitchen.

About this print
The cross-section is the charm: every vegetable shown roots and all, carrots and potatoes glowing underground while the spray from an unseen watering can fans across a deep blue sky. Plan a farm garden now, it urges. WPA artists screen printed it for the US Department of Agriculture between 1941 and 1943, when victory gardens were a matter of national policy rather than a weekend hobby, and that earnestness has aged into charm. The Library of Congress preserves it in the WPA Poster Collection, now in the public domain. It was always meant to make people think about food, which is why a kitchen wall suits it perfectly. Printed to order at gallery scale in its own fixed palette.
