More Brogdale discussion

LATER: See also Lorenzo’s comment to Danny’s post for more information on what’s going on in the European apple world.

Fresh Nibbles

    1. What’s wrong with supermarkets.
    2. Cate Blanchett on the Millennium Seed Bank. Attitude to supermarkets unknown.
    3. Access & Benefit Sharing 101. Cate Blanchett unavailable for comment.
    4. Experts weigh in on how we should change how we eat. Nobody but Cate Blanchett will listen, but supermarkets and seeds feature, for what it’s worth.
    5. How they ate in the Middle Ages without supermarkets. Or at least harvested.
    6. After we’re done with medieval haymaking, let’s bring back the aurochs too. And put it in a supermarket?
    7. Yeah but what is a breed anyway? Or an aurochs, for that matter.
