The book recounts the stories of ten gardens and the people running them, who have resuscitated urban brownfield sites by growing fruits and vegetables as a source of food. To achieve this end, they have developed infrastructures like watering and irrigation systems and methods of cultivation, recycling, and composting, while also building storage structures and producing their own tools. Although the gardens are primarily about people providing for themselves, they also lend themselves to recreation and leisure activities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlexandre Delmar \u003c\/strong\u003e(Porto, 1982) is a photographer and video artist.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLuís Ribeiro da Silva\u003c\/strong\u003e (Porto, 1982) is an architect with a doctorate from ETH Zurich.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMargarida Quintã (\u003c\/strong\u003ePorto, 1981) is an architect with a doctorate from EPF Lausanne.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJoaquim Moreno \u003c\/strong\u003e(Luanda, 1973) is an architect with a doctorate from Princeton University.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJohn Wriedt\u003c\/strong\u003e is an architect and writer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublisher: Spector Books\u003cbr\u003ePublished: 2021\u003cbr\u003eLanguage: Portuguese\/English\u003cbr\u003ePages: 488\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 25 x 14 cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SPECTOR BOOKS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47749619613883,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/1778\/1179\/files\/website_notes-from-the-underdog.jpg?v=1785685933","url":"https:\/\/nyc.doyoureadme.de\/products\/notes-from-the-underdog-agriculture-for-subsistence-in-porto","provider":"do you read me?!  nyc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
