This bulletin promotes an awareness of the heritage of many vegetable varieties. It compares folklore and modern science, and old and new gardening techniques. It tells how to plan a heritage vegetable garden and a North American Indian garden, and how to collect and store seeds. An entire section of the bulletin (illustrated with etchings from old seed catalogs) is devoted to heritage gardening activities such as plant prints and seed medallions. The book is designed for 4-H’ers who are interested in horticulture, Folkpatterns, foods and nutrition, and photography. (48 pages, 1992)
