Caption: Kitchen Garden Layout from Marker
Additional Description: This sketch shows one of the many layouts used for a kitchen garden in the United States during the 1800s. Typically, the garden was just large enough for one person to manage. Southern kitchen gardens were the domain of the planters’ wives, who received some assistance from their slave cooks.
