His family raised a veg garden, chicken, ducks and rabbits for their meals. All this was in the 30's and 40's. You can't get much more urban than London!

We were raised on their tenant farm. As you said,It was their life style. They had very little income & fed everyone without asking for outside donati.ons. They did a lot of cool country folk things....like selling peacock feathers & cooking turtle soupMichellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05533193895245886403noreply@blogger.com
