Reviving the Victory Garden for the 21st Century: A Call to Action
In the face of rising food prices and environmental concerns, the time has come for a modern revival of the Victory Garden — adapted for the 21st century. I’ve started a petition urging local, state, and federal representatives to take significant steps toward making sustainable agriculture accessible to every American home and school.
Our petition advocates for the research and development of affordable and efficient indoor and outdoor gardening systems, such as hydroponic, aeroponic towers, and aquaponics systems. Notable examples include the Merry Hydroponics three-tier 42-plant tower priced at $179, the 36-plant vertical hydroponic tower, and the $100 Greenstalk vertical soil tower. These systems represent the forefront of agricultural innovation, allowing for substantial food production even in limited spaces with minimal environmental impact.
We are calling for these systems to be made available through tax returns or rebates. This initiative will not only empower individuals to grow their own food, reducing grocery bills and carbon footprints, but also educate our children on the importance of sustainable practices by integrating these technologies into school curriculums.
Imagine the impact of every American home and school producing a regular portion of their own food. This isn’t just about reducing costs or promoting health. It’s about security, sustainability, and education. It’s about taking proactive steps to address our global food sustainability challenges.
Join us in this movement. Sign our petition to urge our representatives to support the development and distribution of these innovative gardening systems. Together, we can plant the seeds for a greener, more sustainable future.

Please also push for less restrictions on beekeeping within city/county jurisdictions; the right to maximize calorie return, per sq. ft., of any garden’s full potential, and you have the Barbarians backing you up.
