<\/p>\n
Several months ago I set up a Facebook questionnaire asking everyone to list\u00a0the fruit and veg they were growing at home, primarily to help me design workshops and gear my advice in the right direction.<\/p>\n
There were 420 votes in total and\u00a0for anyone like me who likes stats, the two charts below show the results. For anyone who doesn’t, this is likely to bore the pants off you…<\/p>\n
Although interesting, (I was surprised how few people answered garlic), it’s difficult to really determine the\u00a0chart’s accuracy. My original questions covered the (I thought) most common veg but over the week they were added to resulting in over 40 different fruit or veg categories. Some people may have got bored (3 people ticked the newly added ‘weary with all these questions’)\u00a0and a couple of people commented the questionnaire was causing their computer to stall, which is enough to stop even the most dedicated from answering!<\/p>\n
So, for anyone else who likes facts and figures, here are the results:<\/p>\n
and a much bigger chart for the vegetables:<\/p>\n
(Struggled to fit them all in there were so many! The last one is celeriac)<\/p>\n
The charts incidentally were created by a very handy online chart tool<\/a>\u00a0that was linked by Amanda over on the helpful Spiderworking.com<\/a> blog.<\/p>\n Thanks to everyone who took the time to answer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The results of this facebook questionnaire about what fruit and vegetables people eat and grow were interesting.
