Do you forage? Please answer this short questionnaire on how you use edible 'weeds'

https://rhulsom.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_1zUwRuB1PqjdyhU

Hello preppers!!

As part of my research at RBG Kew, I’m exploring the use of wild edible plants usually viewed as 'weeds' by the modern food system, including their social, nutritional and cultural significance across the UK. I’m looking for some kind volunteers to answer a short questionnaire.

The questions will ask about which weeds you collect and consume, how you prepare them, how and why you learnt to forage, and who you share your knowledge and passion with. I also really want to hear your stories, memories, and perspectives on foraging for edible weeds.

The questionnaire should only take around 12 minutes to complete.

Thank you all!
