In this video Shailene and last year’s winner launch the challenge. The initiative has been featured in The Guardian, and the leading UK morning show BBC Breakfast has encouraged viewers to submit images of their ugly dry lawns to the program. Gotland has already received the first entries for the global competition, among them ugly lawns from USA, UK, France, Germany and Canada. People can enter the competition by simply sharing a picture of their ugly dry lawns on Instagram with the hashtag #worldsugliestlawn. Or by emailing the picture to Gotland at uglylawn@gotland.se. Images from all of 2023 are eligible. The winner will be selected by a jury and announced in December. The first price is a pre-owned t-shirt with the text 'Proud owner of The World’s Ugliest Lawn'. It’s the t-shirt Marcus wears in the video.
