The Alphabet: Gardener Dome, Mars “G”
G is for: Gilbert Gardener
Gil, as everyone calls him, is the founder of Gardener Dome. He is also the oldest person in the dome at age 90. Everyone like him and he is very proud of the dome’s success.
Gil was born in the Bradbury Dome complex and grew up on a farm there. Upon graduating college, he went into the hotel business, opening a small hotel on Olympus Mons. It proved to be very popular with tourists from offworld and within 5 years he expanded it and opened another at Valles Marineris. Ten years later, he owned 11 hotels and resorts across Mars.
Then he sold them all and applied to build a primarily farming dome. When the 15 kilometer dome was finally finished, he put out a call to farmers and small businessfolk. The rest is history.
Gil lives on a small farm on the north side of the dome, where he and his wife of 70 years, Wendy, grow vegetables.
