7 Categories. 21 Cash Prizes. In Both Boroughs
New this year, check out our bonus categories, which include Best Block & People's Choice, and are designed to foster a sense of community around gardening.
While the number of cash prizes we can award may be limited, the Home Garden Contest benefits more than just the people who participate. Growing a home garden also rewards loved ones, friends, neighbors, passersby––anyone, really, who can take in the beauty, or bounty, of your garden. So thanks for playing a part in enhancing our community. Good luck and good health.
Residents of Boyertown & Pottstown Boroughs are eligible to participate in one standard category in addition to the bonus categories.
