USDA - HOME AND GARDEN BULLETINS
Home and Garden Bulletins (HGB) were printed by the Government
Printing Office as a service to consumers and homemakers.
 As typical government issue, they were often printed on
inexpensive paper and in the form of stapled booklets or
one-page or folded leaflets. Many were illustrated.
The booklets are presented below in
alphabetical order by title, with the year of publication and
bulletin number following.
Please note that many of the older publications are out of
print and are no longer available from the Government Printing
Office. Some of the booklets still contain valuable
information, however. Good sources for finding
these older titles are used bookstores, online bookstores,
Ebay
and antique shops.
Your local library or county extension agent may also have
copies that are available for you to look at or borrow.
