Cut Flower Bouquet Contest
By Submitted Story on September 2, 2020
N.C. Cooperative Extension
Creating cut flower bouquets is a fun, educational, and creative way to spend time outdoors. This activity can be done alone, with friends, or with your whole family. Cuttings for your bouquets can be gathered from your yard, a local park, or even from the woods.
N.C. Cooperative Extension, Currituck County Center is hosting a cut flower bouquet contest as part of the Fall Family Fun: An online fair event. No prior experience is necessary. To create a beautiful bouquet all you need to do is begin by selecting a container. Anything that holds water can be used as a container so be creative and think outside the box. Next, gather your flower cuttings and arrange them in the container that you selected. Then simply take a picture of your bouquet and submit it.
To enter, sign up for the Fall Family Fun: An Online Fair Event at https://currituckfallfair.eventbrite.com. Once registered, fill out the form Cut Flower Bouquet Contest. Each form requires you to include a photo of you and your entry. Your photo must include the bouquet that you or your group created.
