Behind the Seeds, Epcot

 

Ever wondered what gardening secrets lie beneath the soil at The Land in Epcot? Then go "Behind the Seeds" for a walking tour of the pavilion's labs and greenhouses. The hour-long tour gives visitors the chance to explore the aeroponic gardens where plants suspended from ceilings grow without soil (they're sprayed with the nutrients they need to thrive).

At the vegetable production house, plants travel up strings in a vertical field to maximize both growing space and air circulation. In the tropical greenhouse, guests will see rice, sugarcane, and even a nine-pound, soccer-ball-size lemon. Finally there's the Aquacell with it's edible aquaculture. Be careful where you wander: One of the delicacies growing here is the tasty American alligator.

Sign up at the podium near the Green Thumb Emporium on the lower level of The Land.

$6 adults; $4 children (ages 3-9). Call 407-WDW-TOUR.
