I don't even like tomatoes and those look good. Is that a good tour? I wouldn't mind going on that one. I love that ride.

Behinds the Seeds is a great tour. It is about an hour long and you get to see and learn much more then you do on Living with The Land. Those tomatos look great.

How much does it cost?

WOW!:D I wonder how they taste:lol:
The tomatoes taste great! I took the Behind the Seeds tour last summer, and they gave us samples during the tour. They were the sweetest tomatoes that I've ever tasted. The tour is really great, and I'd highly recommend it (especially since I may be giving the tour starting in June! :) ) The tour goes through all of the greenhouses that you see in Living with the Land, but in much greater detail. Among other things, you get to take a close look at the Biotechnology lab, take a look inside one of the mist boxes, check out the greenhouses' integrated pest management programs, and try your nose at identifying spices.

This is so exciting. As a former tour guide, I WISH this would have been on show when I was there.

And, this isn't an average plant. This is a new varietal that has been bred to grow in the vine format like this. There are only about 3 or 4 places that have these hybrids, and Epcot is one of them! :sohappy: Can't wait to take the tour (as a guest) this summer!

Hey, since we're posting pictures, I have a few also. These were taken during Behind the Seed tour, and yes, you get to taste the tomatoes.

Also, take note that if you are a passholder or a DVC member, you get a discount on the tour tickets.

Zz.

It is a really good tour. We got samples of the cucumbers. We were not able to have the toatoes.

Another really cool part of the tour is getting to be close up to the aquaculture part. Close up of the fish, crocks, and very large shrimp.

Just like Disney- what service, a comfortable hammock for their vegetables!
