More than 500 raised-bed gardens were installed in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin area in honor of the 6th Annual Victory Garden Blitz.
Held May 10-24, the Annual Victory Garden Blitz was a push toward the Victory Garden Initiative, which is taking on food sustainability one garden at a time.
Case Construction Equipment and CNH Industrial were two of many partners of the Victory Garden Blitz.
Along with a financial sponsorship, Case donated the use of a SV300 skid steer for the event.
The inspiration for the Victory Garden Initiative came from WWI and WWII, where communities built gardens to be self-sustaining, focusing other available resources towards the war effort.
The gardens are made possible with a $160 donation or sponsorship, and each garden is 4 feet by 8 feet, as well as includes a full installation and new soil from local composters.
Volunteers install the gardens in backyards and front yards of homes, schools, community centers and more.
