SWAMPS installed temporarily an experimental salt farm on the ARCAM island, which is surrounded by the freshwater of Amsterdam. Vegetables such as Samphire, Sea Aster, Sea Lettuce and Sea Kale were precultivated and planted by the University of Wageningen. The edge of the “field” was guarded by an enormous “scare-fish”.
