Family Feud (Gardening Edition )

Our team put their thinking caps together and made a fun day at the Christmas Party this year by coming up with family feud style questions. We then asked MIgardener gardeners to join in on answering, we had over 700 responses and we then had to break them down to the top answers for each question! The team was riled up and had a blast! If you are looking to do something fun with your fellow gardeners or family, make sure to save this post! If you are not familiar with Family Feud, this is it in a nutshell :a popular game show where two families compete by answering survey questions to win points. The goal is to guess the most popular answers and win prizes. Hope you guys enjoy the game! Let us know if your family feuded or not! It was a fun time for all of us at MIgardener!
