<strong>Victory Gardens – nearly 40 of them – are springing up in Ardmore.</strong>

And we don’t mean manicured flower beds in the leafy north of town.

Inspired by the Victory Gardens of the First and Second World Wars, they’re purposeful, not pretty: boosting virus-weary spirits, building community, and above all, putting healthy food on Lower Merion tables.
