Yes. I would actually put it that I believe in educating people when
and how to take plants, and most definitely when and how not to!

For example, taking a few things like ramsons, bluebells, tipped-in
blackberries or most tree seedlings is fine, but taking even one
orchid isn't.

If I believed that those who are going to go out and collect plants already
had that knowledge, then I'd agree with you. Unfortunately, what I've seen
doesn't inspire me with that much confidence in people responsibly
collecting plants
