Farmers Must
Depend On Gardens
Tor Food
i _
i Seminole County farmers may have
; to depend on late Spring and Sum
mer gardens for their major supply
of vegetables, because of the unusual-
i ly wet Spring this year.
! Abnormal rainfall during the early
planting season has seriously handi
capped all gardens. However, the 78
I small farmers working with the Farm
Security Administration are not easi
ly discouraged, according t° parrie
i M. Griffin, county home management
Donalsonville news Friday, may ist, 1942.
supervisor.
“FSA farmers already have a good
supply of fresh rape, turnips, lettuce,
onions, beets. English peas, mustard,
cabbage, collards and radishes, from
their gardens,” Miss Griffin said, “and
in spite of the wet growing season,
expect to have carrots, snapbeans,
butterbeans, peas, squash, Irish pota
tatoes, okra, for home use and mar
ket very soon.
Many families have set out tomato
plants and others have nice plant beds.
Sweet potatoes have been bedded for
slips and will soon be ready for set
j ting. Cane has been planted and com
ing up in most instances.
Most of the canning will be done
from Spring gardens this year, Miss
Griffin said, and any surpluses from
summer gardens will be dried, pre
served in brine or sold. Seminole coun
ty borrowers canned 14,266 quarts last
year, but plan a large increase this
year for home use and some extra
for their “Soldiers”. Mrs. Walter B.
I
Bush has already canned about 40
quarts of English peas and several
quarts of beets. Several other ladies
are canning English peas this week.
Seminole county farmers cooperat
ing with the FSA plan to produce as
much food as possible for home use
this year, in order to release commer
cial supplies for military purposes.
I They will also raise some garden
; truck for sale.
I In cooperation with the Department
of Agriculture’s Food for Freedom
campaign, each borrower in the coun
ty will have a 12-month garden in
addition to raising more milk, butter,
chickens, hogs and eggs for subsis
tence for sale,
