Food production in the backyards of homes or in idle urban public spaces is increasingly gaining popular and political notoriety. In this sense, the objective of the study was to characterize the practices of urban and peri-urban agriculture in the backyards of the municipality of Poconé - MT. The snowball or snowball sampling technique was used and as a collection instrument a semi-structured form, photographs and on-site observation were used. The results showed that people plant because they have a traditional family culture, as well as social practices when they exchange solidarity with people close to them and practice sustainability through agricultural management through composting and water reuse
