Americans, during the Great Depression, found many ways to live off of bare minimum because of the lack of resources during the depression. One thing they used was called Victory Gardens, which were gardens that families would start themselves so they could save money and resources by growing their own food. Another method of savings that was utilized was embracing frugality, which meant they would uptake a mindset of buying the exact necessities in order to get by.
