"Planting: A Journey Through Time and Cultures" Step into the enchanting world of planting, where traditions and landscapes intertwine. From the serene gardens of traditional Japanese woodblock geishas to the vibrant paddy fields on Wando Island, we embark on a journey that celebrates the art of cultivation. In one corner, delicate geishas adorned in colorful kimonos gracefully plant flowers in a tranquil garden. Their meticulous movements mirror the harmony between nature and humanity, as they nurture life with every seed sown. On Wando Island, a line of women stands knee-deep in flooded paddy fields, their hands diligently planting rice. The water reflects their determination as they work together to sustain their community's livelihoods through this ancient practice. Moving forward in time, Jean-François Millet's masterpiece "The Angelus" captures a moment of profound reverence amidst potato farmers pausing from their labor to pray. In this humble act lies an acknowledgment of the earth's bountiful gifts and our dependency on it for sustenance. Meanwhile, another scene unfolds as asparagus crowns are carefully placed within a trench by skilled hands. Each crown finds its rightful spot while roots spread out evenly beneath fertile soil—a testament to human ingenuity shaping nature's abundance for future harvests. Venturing further into uncharted territories brings us face-to-face with explorers braving polar expeditions. Amidst icy landscapes and treacherous conditions, these intrepid souls understand that even in desolate environments, seeds can be planted—hope can flourish against all odds. Closer to home but no less captivating is a wheat field nestled within Oregon's picturesque Wallowa Valley. Here golden waves sway under vast skies—a reminder that agriculture connects us not only across borders but also across generations who have tilled these lands before us. Across oceans lies Ireland—the land renowned for its potatoes—and Raleigh himself introducing this versatile crop to the Emerald Isle.
