This study investigates urban farmers' access to land and land tenure in the City of Chicago. It uses a mixed methods approach. The research employs GIS to show spatial and socio-economic difference across urban farm projects. It also uses qualitative methods to explore motivations, challenges of urban farmers, how farmers gain access to the land they farm, and how limitation of land tenure affects their projects. GIS data demonstrates the socio-spatial inequity across Chicago's urban farming projects and suggests shifting location trends of urban farms from 2016 to 2018. The interview analyses reveal how urban farmers are able to gain access to both public and private land through farmer partnerships and personal negotiations with limited success finding land through city vacant land give-away programs. The theoretical framework of Urban Political Ecology (UPE) is employed to explore the complex relationship of vacant land and inequity in the City of Chicago. Through the framework of UPE, the findings show how urban agriculture contributes to "green gentrification" and its role in reproducing spatial inequities that exist in Chicago, as well as the neoliberal governance of the city, which both encourages urban farming as "green" economic development while limiting its growth. Research suggests a farmer-centered urban agriculture policy would include pathways for farmers to gain land tenure. It also suggests that a more democratic process is needed when locating urban farm projects in disinvested communities, one which benefits local residents rather than displaces them.
