Enrolment

Your lawn needs you.

Our sample sizes are, according to every reviewer except the goose, too small. You can fix that with one button and a short walk.
Ongoing study · TGI-215

Enrol in the study

No forms, no consent paperwork and no follow-up. Your only obligation as a participant is to touch some grass at some point. We trust you. We have no way not to.

Not a real institute

The Touch Grass Institute does not exist. Its staff, its studies, its journal and its figures are invented, and its conclusions are deliberately terrible reasoning. Nothing on this site is medical advice. It is not affiliated with any university, journal or research body. Professor Honk is not a real goose, and no goose endorses this site.

Going outside, though, is genuinely good for you. When you do, check yourself for ticks after long grass, mind pollen if you have hay fever, and keep hands off lawns freshly treated with weedkiller or fertiliser.
