Workshops at Biofilia as part of ClimATE Events
Biofilia, a biological art unit at the Aalto University, will facilitate two workshops as part of the ClimATE. The workshops on Plant Cloning and Fermentation of Local Produce and will be led by Biofilia laboratory manager James Evans at Biofilia.
Workshops
Plant Cloning Workshop
October 31
- Morning Session: 09:30-11:30
- Afternoon Session: 13:00-15:00
Participants will clone their own blueberry plants. A nice plant will be provided for practice, cuttings will be taken and then cloned. Results can be seen on November 8!
Can the growing plant clone which will take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere curb the climate change? Lets discuss together!

Fermentation of Local Produce
November 8
- Morning Session: 09:30-11:30
