Living with the Land at Epcot, Walt Disney World
See the Future of Food Production
Gain a newfound appreciation for where your food comes from on this cruise through the living laboratories of Epcot.
Many of your favorite foodstuffs—chocolate, coffee, vanilla, tomatoes and rice, to name a few—grow on trees, vines and now even in soil-less environments. See firsthand how Disney's horticulturalists are using innovative growing techniques and cross-breeding high-yield crops with the goal of sustaining our growing global population
Educational and Profoundly Fascinating
Multimedia displays of diverse eco systems, from rain forest to farmstead, bring our agricultural history to life. As you cruise by, hear about mankind's past successes, failures, lessons learned and hopeful future when it comes to living off the land.
See specimens of produce from around the world, some modified to jaw-dropping effect, in the pavilion's 4 greenhouses. Live eels, tilapia, catfish, freshwater shrimp and American alligators are also on display as you travel though the fish farm.
You can even taste the fruits of this labor for yourself by dining at Sunshine Seasons or the Garden Grill Restaurant in The Land Pavilion, both of which serve produce and seafood fresh from the farm.
Hungry for More?
If Living with the Land whets your appetite for sustainable high-tech horticulture, check out Behind the Seeds, an in-depth walking tour of the facilities, by visiting the Tour Desk on the lower level of The Land Pavilion near Soarin'. (An additional cost is associated with this tour.)
