Urine My Data: Exploring Trends & Voices from Rich Earth’s Garden Survey 

REGISTER HERE

Join the Rich Earth Institute for the 2024 kickoff of our survey & story-gathering project for peecycling gardeners! We’ll share insights from three years of data collection via our Community Science Survey, featuring responses from over 130 gardeners across the country and around the world. Learn about crops fertilized, methods used, communication practices, and personal perspectives on reclaiming the power of pee. Plus - discover how you can share your urine fertilizer explorations with us this growing season! We’ll announce two new add-ons to the ‘Urine My Garden’ survey : a urine fertilization log sheet and a story collector.

Thanks for sharing the survey content! We are working on making a new version of the survey in SurveyMonkey, which will hopefully be accessible in China.

Hi Shikun and all,

The survey uses Google forms ( this is the link ) - sadly I guess this is banned in China (thank you for reminding us).

Rich Earth Institute has probably already sent you the form by e-mail but if not, and for the benefit of others, I copy the survey content here below*:

* Personally, I like to see a survey before clicking on the survey link. It's also useful in case the survey link has already expired.

I am interested in this. However, I can't open the link.

The Rich Earth institute is conducting a survey ( Urine My Garden ) to better understand how and where people peecycle. If you are fertilizing your garden or farm with urine this year, we would love to hear from you. Please share widely with your networks! It takes about 5-10 minutes to complete. Thank you!
