To grow all this food, the Aztecs used two main farming methods: the chinampas and terracing. ... Aztec farmers built up the soil until it was above the surface of the lake. They planted fast-growing willow trees at the corners of the plots to attach the chinampa to the bottom of the lake by the trees' roots.
