Hosts of "The Victory Garden" Television Program, 1993

01

Artifact Overview

WGBH-TV launched Crockett's Victory Garden in April 1975. Russell Morash produced the show, and home gardeners relished the sage advice of gardeners Jim Crockett, Bob Thomson, and others over the years. A segment on cooking for gardeners became a regular feature when chef Marian Morash, Russell's wife, joined the series. The Victory Garden (under other titles) ended its 40-year run in 2015.
