Sagot :

The correct answer is to conserve resources for the war effort.

Victory gardens were homemade gardens where citizens would grow foods that they could use. The goal of this program was to reduce the amount of resources families bought during the war time. This reduced amount of goods bought meant that there would be more resources for the soldiers serving during World War I. The national government had agencies dedicated to this cause and used poster and other forms of propaganda to encourage people to conserve their resources.
