Mexican women are reviving ancient Aztec floating farms to combat urbanization and pollution, preserving a UNESCO-listed heritage.
Women in Mexico, including Jasmín Ordóñez and Cassandra Garduño, are leading efforts to preserve ancient Aztec chinampas—floating island farms—amid threats from urbanization and pollution.
Though historically passed through men, women are now buying and farming these plots, using traditional sustainable methods to restore degraded ecosystems.
They advocate for conservation, promote eco-friendly practices, and earn sustainability certifications, helping protect a UNESCO-recognized agricultural system vital for biodiversity and cultural heritage.
