Description
The Rockefeller Hospital and a Garden, 1931
For many years, a garden at the Rockefeller Institute was part of a citywide effort to provide school children with healthful summer activities. This garden was the resort of many poor children and their mothers and not one of the children who worked there was attacked by infantile paralysis. By 1922, 500 children and 81 adults registered to plant and tend the garden.
