The Genomic Gastronomy Garden, situated in the former
seal enclosure in the Amstelpark, uses the garden as a
site for working with others to test, interpret and contest
existing agro-cultural practices. In their edible plant
garden, Genomic Gastronomy studies the technologies
and ecologies of human food systems while tasting and
debating the history and future of food. The plants featured
in the garden stretch the imagination towards outer space
& deep time, while grounding visitors in the here and now
through a series of public activities that include commu-
nity plantings, seed saving workshops, harvest parties,
collaborative tastings and interpretive tours. The Genomic
Gastronomy Garden wants to connect (inter)planetary
imaginaries with terrestrial environmental activities and
action.
