When you think about it, it's really a miracle that Living with the Land has stuck around as long as it has. And I'm also kinda glad for it, keeping that old school Epcot feel and classic dark boat ride when IPcot and screens become more and more prevalent.

Fun fact I was a host at Garden Grille. There literally is a dial to make that restaurant spin faster. It is however on the slowest speed.

I LOVE this ride. Combine it with the "Behind the Seeds" tour, and you have and incredibly fun, esucational experience. I love that you love this.

Dallin’s “Listen to the Land” overdub is a freakin masterpiece. MASTERPIECE. Can we get him the rights to that? #1 on Spotify vibes for sure

This singing of listen to the land is why I am a Patreon member! You can't find this kind of entertainment anywhere! Keep it up bud!

I remember during my last trip there I rode this ride and I was sitting next to a mom and her kid. The mom was pointing out all the plants to her kid, and they both were fascinated because they were both learning things they didn't know. It was very heartening :)

The rendition of "Listen to the Land" I never knew I needed.

Under👏🏻rated👏🏻ride👏🏻 Thank you for standing up for the best ride in Epcot. Hope someday they can update it with some of the more recent (or more “showy”) innovations from controlled environment agriculture bc this ride literally inspired my entire career and I think revamping some of the greenhouse section could do wonders for garnering interest.

I, too, love LWTL. My only complaint are those dang backrest in the boats that come up right to the middle of your spine and make it impossible to sit comfortably lol

I love how Living with the Land has the power to temporarily pacify even the high maintenance Epcot-goers in your travel party. They will complain during the line but once they're on the ride, they'll glaze over and check out like they used to in all their science courses. It's so de-stressing when you can get to learn without the anxiety of an exam blocking the way out. I've had so much Dallin hair envy these past few vids that I could use a relaxing ride on Living with the Land right now. Or a key change.

I’m not sure if I’d call it the best attraction at Epcot (it’s still Spaceship Earth for me despite the current version not being my favorite), but Living with the Land feels like old Epcot and is not outdated at all. Behind the Seeds is also worth doing and is one of the least expensive tours.

Living With The Land is absolutely my favorite attraction in EPCOT. It's incredibly relaxing, which is needed when you're dealing with the chaos of crowds that is Disney. Then again I also love Carousel of Progress in Magic Kingdom so I'm definitely an edutainment type.

Went on this a few weeks ago. Sat alone in the front with my souvenir cup Orange Bird smoothie and Figment shoulder plush. Had a group of high-school age boys behind me who absolutely made my trip with their surprisingly earnest appreciation for the greenhouse section. Even if they did get reprimanded over loud speaker multiple times for trying to touch the sand.

The lettuce tunnel was used to simulate gravity in space. For a time, NASA had a small portion in the greenhouse lab area. The scientists that work there do have projects that have a beginning and end and this NASA collaboration was one of them.

Why are you yelling at us Dallin? 🤷‍♀️ I am in complete agreement with you! 😃 I love living with the land, even though I only rode it on my one and only day at Epcot ever. We rode it three times in a row because nobody was waiting behind us and it was MAGICAL 💚 I love the vibe.

Ok I’m from the south and can explain the “Good melon rinds” line In the south we grow a lot of melons, especially Watermelons, usually when we go camping or something, we’ll eat these Watermelons, and then the rinds we throw into the woods, “giving it back to nature” which is probably why that line’s there

I've noticed over the past year that you've been taking creative risks in your videos and I think you've really figured it out. It keeps your content unique.

The Behind the Seeds tour is one of the best tours for the price on all of Disney property. Up until they shut it down for the last two years, it was our anniversary tradition to do it every year which we had done for six years and running. We hope they bring it back soon. You learn so much more and get to see the attraction from vastly different areas than you do when in the boat. All the tour guides we have had have been outstanding, and each will give you slightly different information. However, if possible, request Les! He’s the cast member overseeing the entire greenhouse and designs everything, and he’s amazing. So to everyone, when the tour comes back (if it does), it’s well worth your time and money.

This video is iconic, 100% accurate, and a masterpiece thank you for your service to the Disney community

Living with the Land and Spaceship Earth ARE EPCOT. Plus, I maintain that the EPCOT Center album is the best drinking album of all time.

One of the last bastions of classic Disney Parks greatness. This ride is a unique gem.

When Dallin listens, all is right with the world.

A perfect explanation. The original “Epcot” will forever hold my heart. The Disney Edutainment is why I became a teacher. Without the Maelstrom, Living with the Land is the only way that I can still touch a brief moment of my childhood.

The China and Canada Pavillions still have "traditional" Epcot introductions to the nation's with their 360 movies.

“She got it where it counts” the most perfect description of the ride and classic EPCOT Center!

I recall from sometime in my childhood, of many hours of watching Disney Channel, one of the EPCOT Center documentaries feature length advertisements mentioned that the lettuce tunnel was for researching how food could be grown in space. Hence the centrifugal force of the spin to simulate gravity.

Hitting EPCOT in '84 when I was a sciency kid at not quite 11 was the best. Listen to the Land, Horizons, World of Motion, OG Imagination and Spaceship Earth, and all of World Showcase in ONE DAY!!! Imagine trying that today.

Last time I was at WDW was back in 2014 (I think). It was my partner's first trip and I was so excited to show him Living with the Land. That was also the year I discovered how inexpensive the Behind the Seeds tour was so we went on it. So worth it! I learned about the wasps they cultivate and keep in the greenhouses for pest control, received further education on hydro, aero, and aquaponic grow systems (I was heavy into the first two at the time), and my partner got to show off his knowledge of spices at the end. Getting to eat slices of fresh cucumbers at the end seems silly but it was a nice way to bring it all back to our connection with the earth and reliance on its bounty. 15/10, highly recommend Behind the Seeds.

This video literally made my day! I loved your rendition of listen to the land it just made me very happy somehow. Great video 🌿🍂🌾🌳

Edutainment is the word! 😄 This ride could not be more original Epcot, and I love the song! I am loving your channel and how much you appreciate what the parks were originally meant to be.

Mike Brassell also created/produced the song "Mount Bop" which plays at the end of Space Mountain. I had a chance to chat over email with him about it. He's a really great guy too! :D

Thanks for this fun video! My BFF, Elisabeth was childhood friends with Mike Brassell's wife, Elizabeth. My BFF "introduced" me to her on FB, where we became online friends. So, that's my Disney connection, right there. 😜

I went on this ride when I was three years old, and I vividly remember the plants that grow without soil. My kid mind was blown.

Living with the land is definitely one of my favorite epcot rides (Second only to soarin' and test track) and I'm so glad I'm not the only one who absolutely adores this ride!!

Personally I’d argue that the Nemo part of The Seas is pretty “Epcot vibes.” Yeah, it’s IP, but they give you a really, REALLY, annoyingly catchy song and make you a little excited to learn as a lead in to a purely educational experience in the actual aquarium.

Living with the land has been my favorite ride at WDW from a young age!

This is one of my favourites. I can’t explain why- when I was there in 2019 I went on it three times. I drag my sisters on each time.

I saw a video from another creator the other day which referenced the early plans for the Epcot People Mover in the Communicore. I can only assume Dallin hasn't seen that one otherwise I imagine we would already have seen three or four videos dedicated to it.

Dallin, you can make as many videos that you want about living with the land. The ringtone on my phone just happens to be the BOP that is listen to the land and any opportunity I can have to listen to said bop is time well spent

Okay but hear me out- I know nothing about what is currently still in that ride, but when I rode it for the first time back about a year ago, the dark sides of the beginning scenes (by that I mean the house scene, for example, is lit up on one side of the river, and then the other side of the river is pitch black) looked like it had a bunch of stuff there. By that I mean it didn’t look like a smooth wall as you’d turn corners, but as if there was stuff over there just hidden in the darkness. Anyone know what that might be, or if I’m just insane?

I have the Listen to the Land song stuck in my head now. Back when I was a kidling, I purchased a cassette from the Disney Store that had a WHOLE bunch of music from the theme parks, INCLUDING Listen to the Land. I think I actually wore that cassette out from playing it over and over and over. 😂

This is my favorite Disney boat ride. I love the greenhouses. I hope they update it a bit, but keep the greenhouses.

my family has a tradition of eating at the garden grill every time we go to disney. After you get your reservation, you have to wait for 10 odd minutes to get seated. there is always 0 line, so me and my sister used this time to run down and ride living with the land. Great ride.

I've never been to Epcot but this attraction looks fun to me.

Oh my gosh, this was amazing… you’re getting better, with every single vid. You’re an old soul, and my family & I love you, & we truly believe -Walt would’ve too.😊

We are annual passholders. Whenever we go to Epcot, there are 2 things we do without fail: watch Canada Far & Wide, and ride Living With the Land. If Disney ever decides to remove these attractions, they'll have to bulldoze me first.

I love this Living with the Land representation. It's not only my moms favorite Epcot ride, but her favorite Disney ride overall

Low key my favorite ride in EPCOT. Plants, hello?? What more needs to be said.

This was so heartwarming. I've not heard the song before and it was lovely to hear you sing it

Living with the Land was the thing that inspired me to get my degree in plant biology! So happy to find this video, it really deserves more love from Disney Parks fans :) The Behind the Seeds tour is 100% my favorite way to enjoy the greenhouse tour and see everything they get up to in there- I was very tempted to work there as a tour guide for a bit!

I once rode Living with the Land one evening with my family (parents, 10 year old brother, 15 year old sister, 12 year old cousin) and there was a group of drunk adults on the same boat as us that wouldn't stop swearing and being rowdy until my dad turned around and told them to be quiet and let the kids enjoy the ride. I can honestly say this is one of my favourites! So simple and classic.

So I was at Epcot today for the 40th anniversary, and what made me so happy, was that Living with the Land had a 45 minute wait, while Soarin was a walk on. People still love this attraction and appreciate it. 🌎🌱

*I Honestly agree with you, Dallin, Living With The Land is my favorite attraction, is the one i always go to, its inmersion is fantastic, and oh, boy, i can not get tired of that Bromine Water smell.*

Dallin walking the woods, amazing

Its rare im this early, I LOVE EPCOT AND THE LIVING WITH THE LAND IS MY FAVORITE RIDE!!!!

The lettuce tunnel is a real thing! If you've watched The Expanse (which you should!), you'll see them using this technology and some others in LwtL on the spaceships and extraplanetary settlements. So cool!!!

Amazing work as usual, Dallin! This was great and that singing gave me a tear in my eye 🥲

Living with the Land is probably my favorite ride. It's true Epcot. Thanks for sticking up for this great ride!

omg this is amazing! i love this ride and the song so much, i remember listening to the epcot soundtrack when i was a kid and being sad that i never got a chance to ride it when it was still listen to the land since it switched before i was born. i can confirm the behind the seeds tour is life changing, i hope you get to go on it someday soon!

From my experience, kids really enjoy Living With The Land. My daughter has loved it since she was 2yo and when she has gone to Epcot with friends, the other kids have loved the ride too.

I am going to WDW for the first time in December and I am so freakin stoked to get to see Living With The Land in person. I’ve almost exclusively worked in garden centers/greenhouses since I began working and I love the behind the scenes.

As someone who works at living with the land, thank you for spreading the love so many of us have for the ride

I used to work in agricultural education, so the Land pavilion and LWTL in particular has always been dear to my heart.

I always include this ride on every trip. It's relaxing and gives me a chance to sit and be entertained for more than just 2-3 minutes. It's sorta a dark ride, cool, and is interesting, but I really love sitting without so many around me! I wish they offered a small sampler you could purchase at the end and no, I'm not really sure the veggies at the café come from Living.

I went to epcot again for the first time in like 20 years. I haven't been there since I was a kid. You were so right! Living with the land is fantastic! Definitely one of my favorite attractions there, If not my favorite!

Our family visited the Magic Kindom the first year it opened. I myself revisited it twice. Once after graduating Navy boot camp and later in 1976 while I was training at Navy Training Center, Olando, My buddies and I stayed at the Contemporary Resort for a long holiday weekend. Years later in 1892 I stayed at the Contemporary Resort's A frame for a two week vacation and EPCOT had just opened there. Each visit was very rememorable. The ride you are show casing here was and always be my favorite because food sustains us all.

This might be my favorite KZfaq video of all time... Love the song. Brought back soooo many memories. Thank you

Living with the Land has always been my favorite ride in all of Walt Disney World! It's always my first stop when I go to Epcot. I am so glad you made this video.

This is literally the video I've been waiting for you to make for 4 years! Heart this!

Love Living With The Land. Went on the Behind The Seeds tour and loved it. Highly recommended.

I'm loving these longer videos!!

I always love going on this ride. It’s relaxing and different from anything else in Disney World

Now THAT was entertainment! Dang you do good work Sir! I purr in your general direction! PS: You can carry a tune as well! And aren't even the slightest ruffled by a sudden and unexpected appearance of Sasquatch! Kudos maestro!

Im going to Epcot for the first time next month and I’m so excited to go on this ride solely because of how much you love it!

My wife asked the guy sitting in front of us on Living with the Land to be a bit quieter so we could hear the ride narration on our honeymoon as he was being quite loud. He got super mad and tried to take a picture of us lol

I have always enjoyed this attraction. It's never crowded and it's a great way to relax after a long day of walking around the park.

As a kid, I told my parents I would work in the biotechnology lab in living with the land. In 2019, I got to work there, give tours, and meet some of the most inspiring people I’ve ever had the privilege to encounter. The land is and always will be home. Also, yes, the flowers taste great. As an intern I ate more flowers than I even knew was possible. Follow up: if you ever take the tour, ask about stanley.

The moment you drift into the farmhouse scene area is my favorite Disney experience.

One the few channels I watch as soon as I get a notification. Thanks Dallin!

I have and always will love Epcot! My favorite park at WDW. The dinner at the Garden Grille is one of the best. Love this place!

Oh my, " Let's Listen to the Land We All Love," Love it!!!!!!

OMG!! Sorry, I was singing a lot louder than you when you started singing the song; so I couldn’t hear your voice. That song brings back great memories. 😎

Gosh, don't you just love Epcot?? The vibe of that park is just so good; it just has what I consider to be my quintessential "Disney park feeling," if that makes sense. Like, when I think WDW, I think Epcot. It used to be my least favorite as a kid, but these days (now especially since I can drink around the world, lol) it is BY FAR my favorite Disney park. I could spend days and days just in World Showcase alone (despite generally dedicating more than half my Epcot days in WS and having visited more times than I can count, I still feel as though there are so many great little nooks and crannies that I have yet to experience), and now with the Guardians rollercoaster, the most fun coaster at WDW (although it's insanely fun, I do have gripes with its theme considering Marvel movies have absolutely no business whatsoever in Epcot and it make no thematic sense at all being in the park to begin with), Epcot easily stands out to me as being my favorite day of any Disney trip I go on. Nothing beats a great day at Epcot: You have yourself a good ride on Spaceship Earth, LWTL, Soarin', Guardians, Test Track (old TT was a much, much better experience than new TT and I'll fight anyone who disagrees), stop by Club Cool for a quick sugar blast, and of course a ride on Figment before making your way towards the World Showcase and spending your afternoon strolling through the countries with a nice beer or cocktail, perusing the awesomely immersive shops and dining locations and grabbing a great sit-down dinner later on (Les Chefs de France, anyone? Maybe a nice pizza over at Via Napoli? You really can't go wrong with World Showcase sit-down meals; they're the best at the entire resort). By then the park starts to clear out more and you begin to feel like you have it all to yourself as the once-crowded walkways give way to wide open paths and stunning vistas of the various landmarks throughout the world. The sun starts going down, you're full of filet mignon, potatoes au gratin and good red wine, and it cools off more right as you hit your second-wind after dinner, making for an absolutely PERFECT Disney evening to wrap up your perfect Disney day. And while I do enjoy fireworks, I typically like to head back towards Future World and get one or two more rides on Test Track and/or Spaceship Earth while there is basically no wait. That's my perfect Epcot day right there. You'll have a tough time convincing me that there's any other Disney park that can give you that great of a day. Man, I just love Epcot.

NEVER MISS IT! Love it so much.

This is unironically my absolute favorite ride at Epcot! I always ride it more than once every time I visit. If I don't get to see the 9 pound lemons it's not a complete Disney trip lol

Living with the ride is one of my must dos at Epcot! I love it!!

Behind the Seeds tour is AMAZING! Highly recommended!

Go through all the OG Epcot edutainment rides. Loved Listen to the Land and Kitchen Cabere. Loved the OG Imagine with Dream Finder. Loved Horizons. Loved all of the OG theme songs.

Video was worth it for the song at the end alone!!!

My favorite ride. Went to Epcot by myself yesterday and only rode Living With the Land 😭 also haven't done the walking tour but want to this year.

That Listen to the Land music video you did was pretty good. I laughed at the visuals, and your singing is pretty good.

Finally I’ve been waiting for this 🥰

My first time to Epcot was in February with my GF this year. This is a pretty neat ride.

Listen to the Land was a highlight of my trip to EPCOT Center in 1983. I even ate at The Good Turn restaurant. I think I had quiche. I remember that the restaurant menu contained the same foods that were available at the food court downstairs, and for the same prices! It was table service, so there was a gratuity involved. I also remember thinking the food at Disney World was reasonably priced, compared to the way the only other theme parks I was familiar with, Six Flags over Texas and Astroworld, overcharged for food and drinks. The Land wasn't my favorite pavilion at that time, however. That distinction goes to Universe of Energy.

I have loved living with the land since I was a little baby boy. It has always been my favorite ride in all of disney world.

Proud I was able to belt out the listen to the land song from memory when my parents played the song on repeat on road trips

12:34 All original rides you hardly see designed anymore. I hope rides like Living With the Land, Test Track, Figment, Spaceship Earth, Soarin, and Mission Space live long and prosper.

Great video. I love and miss classic Epcot. The original music and pavilions are sorely missed.

You keep making Epcot videos and .... I LOVE (or loved :( ... classic) Epcot Spaceship Earth, Horizons, THE ENTIRE pavilion for Imagination in it's original form ... AND Living with the Land has always been my favorites ... and while never my favorite ... the spirit of Communicore/Innoventions ... .HELL ... i loved that outside part of the World of Motion ride ... though that was getting dated when Test Track was made

HA! I can't believe you sang the whole song! You really went for it! You have my complete and total respect! ALL HAIL!!!!
