Produce and Dinosaurs (Livestream) - The History of Fresh Produce

  • Summary

  • Dinosaurs and fresh produce? It might sound unusual, but the connection between prehistoric plants and ancient giants is stronger than you think.

    In this episode, Patrick and John explore the fascinating history of ancient plants like cycads, ginkgoes, and conifers, and how they relied on dinosaurs for seed dispersal. Discover how the rise of flowering plants transformed ecosystems during the Cretaceous period and the surprising role of herbivorous dinosaurs in shaping the evolution of fruit as we know it.

    From Mesozoic megafauna to the enduring legacy of "living fossils," this journey through Earth's prehistoric past will change the way you think about fresh produce!
