This was the first room we went into, where they talked about the pest control they do using other insects. These plants have insect larva in them that tunnel through the leaves, but Epcot uses tiny wasps to eat the larva before they kill the plants.

This is the biotechnology lab where they talked about tissue culturing. I thought it was really interesting.

We got to eat hydroponically-grown cucumbers. They were delicious! Our guide gave us all a handout with instructions on how to make your own hydroponic garden at home.

You get to see a lot from the tour that you can't see or don't notice from the ride.

We played a game at the end where our guide passed around tubes with foods and spices in them and we had to guess what they were. One of them stumped everyone on our tour.

I hope you like the tour! We definitely did!
