EU Open Day 2023

From Farm and Ocean to Fork

Have you ever tried eating algae? Come and taste chocolate, bread and cheese with algae at our stand in the Green Europe Village at the EU Open Day. Donald Deschagt, a Belgian chef specialising in algae, will tell you more about all the benefits it brings. Take part in our game to learn more about all the EU actions to ensure sustainable, healthy and quality food for all EU citizens. You will be able to:

• taste fresh and baked algae
• discover #EUOrganic products and protected #EUQuality products (PDO, PGI)
• cycle to make your own smoothie with "ugly" but yummy fruits and vegetables
• learn more about TasteTheOcean recipes based on sustainable fish.

This year's EU Open Day Green Europe Village will serve as a one-stop shop for information on Green Deal topics, featuring topics such as agriculture, algae farming, biodiversity, clean energy, and more! Enter the pollinator park or take a quiz to learn how to reduce your carbon footprint! The EU Open Day will not only be an opportunity to learn about current EU policies (such as the Green Deal or the Farm to Table strategy), but also to participate in many activities. Stop by the Green Europe Village during the EU Open Day and enjoy Europe with us!
