Urban Garden: Fighting for Life And Beauty (Trailer)

This video represents a visual ethnography of New York City's urban greening movement and its connection to civic ecology. Using case examples and connections to similar efforts globally, it examines the importance of such action to reclaiming previously devastated communities. The documentary explores how community gardens in the process of creating social capital across class, age and cultural boundaries also work to feed the poor, promote health, educate children and build ethnic identity.
