Fresh Nibbles

    1. Agrobiodiversity inspires tourism in the Andes of Peru.
    2. South African fruit exporters does its (small) bit for heirloom apple conservation.
    3. Wild tea doing just fine in the Shunhuangshan National Nature Reserve in Hunan Province, China. Even when harvested by local communities. Looks great for tourism too.

    5. Women are in charge of chiles in Tamil Nadu.
    6. Popular Science does genebanks. At least one genebank has tourism potential, I’d say.
    7. Want to support forest landscape restoration through native tree planting in Kenya? Go to MyFarmTrees, and help keep Kenya a tourism hotspot.
