For the GTS event this fall in Antibes France, we wish to build some documents.
In order to make this documents very informative for visitors who will be able to read it and encourage them to join us in the GTS adventure, we need all of you.
We would like you to post here, each 2 photos:
a first (European only) that illustrates your place of culture (vegetable garden, fields, pots on balconies…etc.) where we see in the background the environments of cultures specific to your region (the mountain, the sea, the city, the forest, the cold or arid conditions…)
This first picture will be used to create the visual of the map that will show the geographical distribution of members with the travel of the serendipity seed swap (EU version).
This document show what makes this network so strong: our diversity and the work of adaptation that is linked to it
a second (or more if you have worked well, members of all countries) that illustrates the most unlikely plant that appeared in your growing space (a particularly beautiful cross, a giant or dwarf shape, a new vegetable color, the only grex plant surviving due to a growing problem…)
This second picture will be used to create a slide show that will be shown on the stand and will provide an understanding of the work of adaptation gardening.
Show what adaptive, crossed, variable plants are … in the landrace so that visitors can better visualize the concept.
Thank you for your participation in order to make the realization of these documents easier, and avoid browsing again your thousands of posts all so exciting !
I don’t know if I grow something which shouldn’t grow there. Except for a plant fruiting someone gave me which should grow in the tropics normally. But I do not do breedingwork on it, so i do not see how that would contribute more than a picture like this.
good idea stephane, if I wait a few more days, my GTS quinoa row will be flowering, with various colours. spectacular.
I also have some arachis plants , less visually impressive because they are small.
and three rows of niébé + mil
I will program a reminder in my phone to make these pictures
As a rank newbie, I have nothing that fits the criteria, having not really even started yet. But I took these pictures and you can use them as some kind of filler if you wish. Now I’m working on sharing them as second photos, since being American I can’t post a first photo, just know the first photo is really a second photo and go from there.
I think this is a gogi berry, I planted it late spring, and it is blooming now. Do they really bloom late summer or do they just bloom all season? Anyway, it surprised me. I aquired it on sale at the end of planting season, then left it sitting for a couple weeks more before getting it in the ground. That it even lived was a bit of a surprise, and then it’s blooming too!
for the deadline, mid-September would be perfect because we need time to do the infographics with all the other things to settle about the event.
If the Europeans can be a little faster it’s great because the card will require a little more work.
Thank you for your participation in all even beginners, because this is also our diversity of advancement.
If we could have this type of bean with the fava beans and peas hugo to present on the table, in decoration would be magnificent!
we could make a nice mandala, or we suspend them 1 by 1 as you suggested to make a colored grain cloud above the stand
Thanks Stephane, if you need pictures of something specific (seeds, yields, garden beds, etc) , please let me know, I might have better ones than those above.
Tropicals like bananas, bottle gourds and asian long beans thriving in the Mallorca heat.
And red fleshed apples producing despite very little chill hours
