Let's discover the Faapu of French Polynesia! What is a Faapu? Well this is the Polynesian word for vegetable garden, where we grow fruits and vegetables!
After the episodes on beekeepers and on tourism with the majestic humpback whales, here we are, you and I for a new adventure! We will explore the island of Tubuai, in the Austral archipelago and the atoll of Rangiroa, in the Tuamotu archipelago to meet farmers and people who like to grow fruits and vegetables. in their garden!
Living in such remote islands, it is very important to think about how you consume! Every food that is not produced here is imported and waste treatment is difficult. So I spend quite a bit of time learning and exploring the islands to find ways to produce the food myself.
This episode is the result of a few weeks of traveling between the islands. Growing fruits and vegetables is a very different challenge from one archipelago to another! Each presents their own challenges. How to grow fruits and vegetables in very dry land? How is agriculture practiced in the islands of Polynesia? What vegetables can you grow in French Polynesia? Is it possible to grow fruits in the Tuamotu archipelago ? How is the climate in French Polynesia?
Hope you enjoy this little adventure together. For the next episode, we'll go to learn more about fishing with one of the rare Tuamotu fisherwomen!
See you later friends!
