Tailor-made programme
Outside the standard tour, it is possible to create a programme in consultation. In this way, a visit can be fully adapted to the pupils' learning theme, if requested in good time.
We offer interactive tours with contemporary themes for your students. And of course they will visitthe demonstration greenhouse at Tomatoworld. Here they can see with their own eyes how different tomato varieties are grown using state-of-the-art techniques. They hear the bumblebees flying and see what is done to get a beautiful, tasty tomato. They learn how diseases and pests are dealt with organically and... of course, they taste the different varieties of tomatoes.
This global challenge is at the heart of Tomatoworld and is addressed in different ways, but always interactively, in each tour.
- Population growth and urbanisation
- Finiteness of fossil fuels
- Global warming
- Scarcity of fresh water
- Waste of food
- The importance of healthy eating
are themes that are important for students' futures.
During the tour of Tomatoworld, students experience at their own level the feeling that every world citizen can also contribute to the solutions of the world food problem by his/her own food choices and lifestyle.
Outside the standard tour, it is possible to create a programme in consultation. We have staff with years of experience in education for this purpose. In this way, a visit can be fully adapted to the pupils' learning theme, provided that the request is made in good time.
