Fruit and veg, that is.

For her MA my friend Anna is doing some research about what motivates people to grow their own food, and what discourages others. She has a short (10 tick box) and anonymous survey online, and would love some more people to answer it for her - STW massive, can you help?

Whether you already grow stuff, don't but are thinking about it, or wouldn't grow your own food if your life depended on it, Anna would like to know why:

Thanks in advance to everyone who helps!

done - although TBH it seems more pitched at people who dont already grow their own food/live in the town/wouldnt know a broad bean if they tripped over one...

Tastes very good, lots of effort. You will share half with the slugs.

we've grown tomatoes and chilli's for the last couple of years, have extended into carrots, parships, and runner beans this year... tis quite fun on a small scale.
Even the g/f like it, though she won't go into the green house now the tomatoes have taken over (never got this pinching them back business)

Filled in the survey.

p.s. got seemingly a million chilli's growing on the 3 apache plants we got this year, well recommended, though we don't know how hots they'll turn out.

Stoner, yes, you're right - she's a graphic designer, and hoping to design something that will appeal to/encourage those who don't yet grow, so the survey is biased a bit that way, but she's going to need both sides I think.

Thanks all of you who've filled it in so far,
