Ljubljana Botanic Garden
BIO26 | Open Knowledge: Nutcrackers and Storytellers
How do voices of plants, echoes from the mountains and memories of new encounters come together around one table, set in the middle of Ljubljana’s Botanic Gardens?

How do voices of plants, echoes from the mountains and memories of new encounters come together around one table, set in the middle of Ljubljana’s Botanic Gardens?

Between noises of cracked nutshells and light simmer of wax candles, stories appear. They are shared around the table, without big dishes or fancy plates; simple, repeating gestures of scooping walnut flesh out of their peels, dipping it into honey, ripping bread, pouring coffee and passing along cups are there to keep our hands busy and our heads calm. They give the stories a tangible companion of textures, smells, and flavors, all familiar but somehow unexpected.

Let’s celebrate the moment of encounter, of gathering and of becoming close—us with the stories, with the garden and with each other.

Venue:

University Botanic Gardens Ljubljana, Ižanska ulica 15
