    I was so excited to see that there is a Japanese branch of Ark of Taste! I hope to explore the site more later to see what all they have to offer. The main thing that I found was being able to nominate local plants as being worthy of preservation.

    Ark of Taste has been around quite a while. I think it got its start in Europe, but it quickly spread and North America and then worldwide.

    I hope they will be able to preserve many of the increasingly rare but tasty and valuable varieties. It is very scary to see how much genetic crop diversity we have lost in the last 100 years.
