| Summary: | In northern cities, urban agriculture is from now on at the heart of sustainable and resilient cities projects. This article proposes an ethnography of a vegetable appropriation led by a group of artists and “activists of vegetal” on the railway brownfield site of the Parisian petite ceinture.
