520    Across the United States marginalized communities are 
       organizing to address social, economic, and environmental 
       inequities through building community food systems rooted 
       in the principles of social justice. But how exactly are 
       communities doing this work, why are residents tackling 
       these issues through food, what are their successes, and 
       what barriers are they encountering? This book dives into 
       the heart of the food justice movement through an 
       exploration of East New York Farms! (ENYF!), one of the 
       oldest food justice organizations in Brooklyn, and one 
       that emerged from a bottom-up asset-oriented development 
       model. It details the food inequities the community faces 
       and what produced them, how and why residents mobilized to
       turn vacant land into community gardens, and the struggles
       the organization has encountered as they worked to feed 
       residents through urban farms and farmers markets. This 
       book also discusses how through the politics of food 
       justice, ENYF! has challenged the growth-oriented 
       development politics of City Hall, opposed the 
       neoliberalization of food politics, navigated the funding 
       constraints of philanthropy and the welfare state, and 
       opposed the entrance of a Walmart into their community. 
       Through telling this story, Growing Gardens, Building 
       Power offers insights into how the food justice movement 
       is challenging the major structures and institutions that 
       seek to curtail the transformative power of the food 
       justice movement and its efforts to build a more just and 
       sustainable world.
