BOTANY NIGHT– Victoria Natural History Society Theobroma cacao – A Botanical history. Join David Mincey of Victoria’s own “The Chocolate Project” for an engaging and delicious look at the tropical tree which gives us chocolate. We’ll examine the growth habits, pollination, propagation and cultivation of this most interesting tree. Then, we’ll follow the complex path from harvesting ripe cacao to turning it into chocolate. We will also examine the role of cacao in societies from the early Mesoamerican through to the present day. And of course, there will be some chocolate to taste!


Everyone welcome.
