This situation motivated interest in agricultural and backyard activity in some inhabitants. This research aimed to generate agri-food alternatives through agroecological family gardens to reduce the food insecurity of families of small subsistence agricultural producers. A solidarity group of 10 participants of 7 Family Production Units (FPU) interested in the agroecological transition to produce healthier and healthier food, was integrated. Following the IAP methodology, training needs were identified, and workshops with an agroecological approach were scheduled. Through this process, the participants obtained new knowledge for agricultural practice, exchanged knowledge and established values within the working group, such as solidarity, mutual aid, cooperation, reciprocity, and environmental commitment.  En este trabajo se describe el proceso de investigación acción participativa (IAP) en la comunidad de Cuilápam de Guerrero, Oaxaca, en un contexto de confinamiento causado por la pandemia de covid-19 (2021), situación que motivó el interés por la actividad agrícola y de traspatio en algunos habitantes.
