gardens
planted at private residences and public parks in the

Germany
during
World War I
and

. They were used along with
Rationing Stamps and Cards
to reduce pressure on the public food supply. Besides indirectly aiding the
war effort
, these gardens were also considered a

"
morale
booster" in that gardeners could feel empowered by their contribution of labor and rewarded by the
produce
grown. This made victory gardens a part of daily life on the
home front
