    Are you referring to ‘Victory Gardens’ in WWII?

    If so, that’s a bit of an apples to oranges comparison, since Poland had been at peace for over 35 years.

      I’m Estonian, not Polish, but I’ve helped my mom grow potatoes and stuff. Because of the peasant history, our people have always grown our own food. Only in the least few decades has it been getting less common.
