A currently unused field plot close to PSB at the Tech Lane Ghent Science Park will be used for non-GMO field trials. The idea is to give students, postdocs, and personnel of VIB the opportunity to experiment with different plants and crops and to build a community garden this way. The land is currently being prepared for planting and photos will be posted regularly to show the progress, so stay tuned.
We are also working on a project – together with Natuurpunt - that involves forest restoration and biodiversity. Updates soon!
