Earl Carter always had a garden to add variety to the family's meals. A community sweet potato garden was also planted and shared among the residents who lived nearby. This garden was strictly for the Carter family's use although the farm supervisor, Jack Clark, was responsible for its planting and upkeep. Crops were shared when there were some to spare.
