Sesame Street - Mrs. Wilson's garden

[DaveWollenberg]

the narrator of the film, sure didn't sound like Jenny, when she spoke on the film!

Was Mrs Wilson a vegan?

[miiket67]

too bad this wasn't included on the first sesame street old school dvd set.

mrs wilson sounds like captain janeway

[sheepwolf2004]

that background music is pretty

I think Jenny enjoyed picking, but looked a little overwhelmed about a 100% vegetable lunch. I would have gone straight for the corn, too, and then said "I'm full".

The wonderful 1960's , little kids would watch this now, its got that grandma's house magic to it. A peek into simpler days when kids acted like kids and had long extended childhoods and your only worry was , dont be late for dinner .

@1952kid Back in the 60's? i don't think so. this is a nice video though. I just wish Mrs Wilson had cooked the beet greens. Those are really good.

I think this is an important issue for children today: awarness- of- origins.Not only food, but our whole environment as well, thank you!

[OtherBrother09]

I could watch this all day, it's so wonderfully innocent and simple. It's good for my soul.

I was thinking about this clip the other day. I remembered it from when I was real little.

[plantnut65]

I watched this too when I was 4. OMG so awesome.

[d72jjpilc]

I might remember this. Like 'Head to Toe Puzzle,' it was a longer live-action film featuring kid narration from the early years. I think the scene at the end - Jenny eating the corn - looks familiar. Cute, though, whether I remember it or not!

Unfortunately,many of todays youth believe that food comes from a supermarket...not the ground.

This was DEFINITELY from 1969. I had seen this when Sesame Street premiered. I get a kick out of the girl's Brooklyn accent; "Then I washed awwl the vegetables in the wauta." (my parents are "Brooklynese.." (I lived in Lawng Island (massapequa) at the time...)

[trentgerman]

Wow, I remember watching that back in the early 70s when I was about four years old and being absolutely fascinated by it. Thank you so much for posting this and the other vintage Sesame Street clips.

[audgeyp]

I remember this. I also liked the one of the family making chicken soup.

[misaamanaga]

[Garrettk41]

That's a nice clip. I like the simplicity of the live action films of Sesame Street's really early years.

[jkygogo]

Mrs. Wilson is beautiful.

[Garrettk41]

Jennifer is pretty cute too.

[ruleta74835]

Nice garden, but I wonder if it's now underneath a new home.

[wattamack4]

"Eww,the dirts comming off!" lol.

[PandaMishima]

Ah, the pictures and sounds of a more innocent time! Can't do anything like this today unless it's some sarcastic and/or disgusting parody.

[jkygogo]

No, for kids, like this one was, you can still do it.

[wattamack4]

Does anyone have the film where a school goes over to a Garden in the middle of the city and have a picnic with all the foods the picked?I love the jazzy music in the backround.

[trppey66]

Wow, what a healthy lunch. I use to like this clip a lot back in the day. When I was little, I didn't realize how annoying that little girl's voice was. : )

[love2register]

"...and there inside it, WAS A CONE ON THE COB!!"

[PandaMishima]

:)!

This clip was indeed from 1969; I have a copy of Episode 83, and it's in there.
