((Barbara Anslow's memories of the communal garden:
Earlier in internment the prewar football pitch near Married Quarters and American Quarters became a vegetable garden, divided up into little plots as individual gardens for internees. We Redwoods had a tiny plot there. But there came a time when we were told that the entire pitch was to be used as a communal garden to supplement our poor rations.
Its management was taken over by our camp council.
We hastily dug up our precious peanut plants, and ate the peanuts although they were not mature.))
