If you clicked on one of the nibbles above, the one on agri-tourism in Crete to be precise, you will already know about connect2earth. So, for the ones who didn’t, this is a place where you can upload your conservation-related stuff (videos, pictures, slogans, whatever) and have a chance for it to get shown to the bigwigs at the World Conservation Congress in Barcelona in October. The interesting thing from our point of view here at Agricultural Biodiversity Weblog is that a there is a section on local and sustainable food.
