Abstract

A brief introduction to the complex and formalized practice of Polish urban agriculture over the past 100 years is offered. Bellows discusses how assumptions about relations of urban food production assign the non-paid, subsistence and economically invisible labor of "gardens" mainly to women of all ages and sometimes to marginalized retiree and unemployed males.
