Medicinal Plant Story Map

One plant, and the people who know about it. A grandmother, a market seller, a neighbour, a book, the internet.

Mapping the sources rather than the facts is the move here, and it produces a real observation, which is that most plant knowledge in the region travels through people rather than through print, and that the internet often contradicts the grandmother.

The page has the mapping frame, an interview prompt, and a reliability question at the end. That question is uncomfortable and correct. Which source would you trust and why, and the answer is not automatically the printed one.
