FINANCIAL DISTRICT — Attention trivia nerds: here's a chance to indulge your quiz love — and get outside for some waterfront drinking amid beautiful greenery.

The Battery Conservancy is hosting three nights of local, environmental-themed trivia at Table Green, a kiosk which serves up only local beers and wine, inside The Battery Bosque, a lush garden at the tip of Manhattan, with views of the Statue of Liberty.

Each trivia night, slated for July 30, Aug. 6 and Aug. 30, will be hosted by different organizations the Conservancy partners with, and will be somewhat themed towards New York City's natural world, along with general NYC questions, said spokeswoman Nicole Brownstein.

July 30, for example, will be hosted by environmental group Trees New York, and questions will focus on local plant life in New York City. The second trivia night will focus on local NYC food and the final evening will have an aquatic theme, Brownstein said.

Happy hour deals on beer and wine will run from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m., with trivia starting at 6 p.m.

Teams must be four people or fewer, and prizes include tickets to the soon-to-open SeaGlass carousel, along with other "surprises" Brownstein said.

"We're really excited to invite more people to come spend time in the Bosque and learn more about The Battery and the natural world — we think it will be a lot of fun," Brownstein said.
