Gardener Personality Reseach Quiz 2017 07 17

Welcome to the Gardener Personality Research Questionnaire

Thanks so much for participating in this research survey. I am collecting information on gardening styles and personality. I hope to use this research to help new gardeners get growing.

The survey will take you about 15 minutes to complete. There are no wrong answers :) Just go through the questions fairly quickly and answer with the first thing that comes to mind. It is easy!

Since I won't be able to get you any 'results', I want to offer you something for your time in participating. At the end of the survey, I'll get your contact info and I am delighted to give you digital access to the video set "Grow Your Own Groceries" which is the most popular video on backyard food production ever created.

There are 113 questions in total - but as I mentioned - they go super quick.

Thank you so much for your help with this valuable research. You are helping with the vision of "Home Grown Food On Every Table".
