Xochimilco has more than 2,500 acres of protected land owned by generations of local chinamperos.
The chinampas were built up by the Aztecs with fertile mud from the bottom of a lake that, later drained, would one day become Mexico City .
Many families are abandoning the ancient practice to rent out or sell their land for more lucrative uses such as soccer fields.
The chinampas are among the significant features that led Mexico City's historic center and Xochimilco to be recognized as a world heritage site by UNESCO .
Federal, state and local authorities are working on proposals to address the soccer fields.
After a long day's work out in the sun, Garduño and some neighboring farmers gather for a feast of chicken and tortillas.
