Not only did we have the hat contest, but she had markings on some of the dinner plates that won prizes, and some wonderful quizzes (yes, we definitely should have studied!) that the best score got prizes as well. One quiz involved matching latin names to common name of a group of plants, one involved matching salix latin names to their common names, and my favorite (which I scored embarrasingly low on but really enjoyed learning the answers to) was to try to define a list of garden related phobias. Arachnophobia was an easy one (spiders), but can you guess anthrophobia Dendrophobia Rupophobia? You could win a fantastic prize like Sharon did! |
