It was the oldest gardening program produced for television in the United States, premiering April 16, 1975.
On each episode, Crockett demonstrates and cares for a vegetable, fruit, and flower garden, shows you how to build a cold frame, and why salt marsh hay was useful as a mulch.
Following Crockett's death at the age of 63, Bob Thomson hosted the program from 1979 to 1991[2] and the show was renamed The Victory Garden.
In addition to the regular gardening demonstrations, the show began to make room for more guests and travel features.
In 2013, the show was relaunched in partnership with Edible Communities, and it became The Victory Garden's EdibleFeast.
