Plant Planet Plate- Science and Storytelling
Plant Planet Plate– a recently launched initiative by Green Shoots Foundation and Researcher Dr. Ashley Thuthao Keng Dam (an anthropologist and ethnobotanist).
The initiative comes under our Food Agriculture and Social Entrepreneurship program and is situated at the Agri-Tech Centre.
As a team we are studying wild food plants and Traditional Ecological Knowledge in NW Cambodia.
So far, the project has identified nearly 147 uncultivated plants and mushrooms that play a role in food insecurity, biodiversity preservation and agroecological practices.
The initial fieldwork for this project was made possible through support from The National Geographic Explorer Fund.
