Description

For sample adults who had participated in gardening in the past 2 weeks (EXYARD), EXYARDNO reports the number of times the respondent had participated in gardening over those 2 weeks.

After the interviewer determined that a respondent participated in gardening, respondents were asked, "How many times in the past 2 weeks did you participate in gardening?"

Related Variables
