Big Local Gateshead’s Sunflower Competition!
Finally it’s here! Our sunflower competition is launched and you have the chance to win prizes worth £30!
We have 3 categories for you to enter:
1. The tallest sunflower - To enter you will need to find a way to show evidence of the height in your photograph. You can be creative with how you do this!
2. The largest sunflower head - Measure your sunflower head across the centre (diameter) from the tips of the petals on either side… remember, we need to see evidence of your measurements in the photos!
Our last category is…
3. Hanging on by a thread - This is for all those lovely sunflowers that, for whatever reason, didn’t quite reach their potential!
Here’s the sunflower I grew this year…I don’t think it’s a prize winner in any of the categories but I can’t wait to see all your entries! Here’s what you need to do:
Take one or more photos of your sunflower – find some way to show the evidence of your measurement in your photos like holding a ruler or rape measure up to it.
Share your photo’s to our Facebook group, BLG Growing Together
Write your sunflower’s vital statistics underneath - height and head size.
Closing date for entries is Wednesday 9th September (1 week), winners will be announced on Friday 11th September with the weekly prize draw.
Good luck everyone!
