As a result of our exploration in the Caribbean island of Puerto Rico since around two years ago, we have spread the word about our agritourism experiences so far. It is time to test your knowledge about some discoveries we shared through publication of ecotreasures ® stories under the agritourism section. You may dare yourself to answer the questions listed below without reading the articles again, or feel free to refresh your memory. If you are a first-time ecotreasures reader, dig up the information and catch up with our followers. Whether you are a recurrent ecotreasures reader or newbie, accepting the challenge to answer the Agritourism Quiz may be entertaining. You may even get together with family or friends, and test who is the most knowledgeable about ecotreasures experiences since quizzes have been published under all magazine’s sections in this issue.
