The world as we know it depends on pollination. Without this process, the nearly 300,000 species of seed-producing plants (phanerogams) would not exist. Pollination happens through a mechanism that transfers pollen grains from the male part of a flower \u2014 the stamens \u2014 to its female part \u2014 the stigma \u2014 where the pollen germinates and fertilizes the flower\u2019s ovules, making the production of seeds and fruits possible. Every flowering plant faces a challenge each season: ensuring its flowers get pollinated. To achieve this, they have developed different strategies, many of which rely on an animal as an involuntary carrier of pollen. We invite you to discover some of these cases, from the most common to others that may surprise you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the three days of the festival, you can visit the outdoor exhibition located next to Tent 2, past the stands in Zone A. There, you\u2019ll be able to see images by Anna\u00efs Pascual, Adrien Lesaffre, Rafa Armada, Marta Albareda, David Tipling, Nicol\u00e1s Reusens, Javier Rup\u00e9rez, Oriol Borrut, Sebasti\u00e0 Torrens, Przemys\u0142aw Zdunek, and Granja San Francisco.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The exhibition is sponsored by Granja San Francisco, a honey specialist that has been working with local beekeepers since 1934 to offer carefully selected honey that is 100% of local origin. Aware of the important role bees play in our ecosystem, they actively collaborate in their preservation and repopulation through the \u201cPolinizando\u201d program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
