There are more than 1,700 genebanks that hold crops for safekeeping, but most are vulnerable and exposed. Not only to disasters but also poor management or poor freezers, which can ruin a whole collection. That would be like the extinction of the dinosaurs we would be without that crop variety if there was a disaster. The vault area is made of permafrost and thick rocks. It is 100 meters into the island and will remain frozen even if there is no power to the vault. Protecting above any other collection site. This way the opportunity to rebuild is there and it is supposed to be secure for centuries keeping a variety of crops available to the world. It has the capacitiy to store 4.5 million varieties of crops, normally there are an average of 500 seeds. That makes about 2.5 billion seeds to be frozen in the vault when it is full. Right now there are about 890 886 samples in the vault. Amazing for sure, And a beautiful place to be on nights or days when the northern lights decided to shimmer and shine.
The rings disappear every 29 1/2 years, well they do not really disappear, but when Saturn turns, it crosses over to where there looks like no rings are on Saturn. Totally wild and crazy.
We love eating all the fresh veggies during the summer and canning it all for winter. So we do not mind helping out in the gardens. There are more of us living here so we need a bigger garden then last year. We girls do not have to work out there for two weeks. The boys will not do anything until next Saturday. Then they will shovel the manure into the garden and then till up the dirt and manure together to prepare it. Mmmm veggies are coming .. lol .. Well that is my news for today. We will share gardening this summer we cannot wait to get started, well some of us cannot wait, some people hate doing garden duty and would much rather do other things, but it is important to learn to make a garden. Aunt Helena and Nana always say.
