The site, in 1996
A not-for-profit online database of edible and useful plants, mostly for temperate regions, run by an educational charity.
It lists over 8,000 plants, about 1,000 of them for the tropics. Ken Fern started it with the 1,500 plants he grew on his 28-acre research site in south-west England. The name plays on 'plans for a future'.
Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.
The Establishment: Governments, universities, libraries and archives. Very official.
