7 Categories. 5 Cash Prizes in Every Category.

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.

Choose only one category. To qualify, your garden must be accessible to judges. 

Judges will visit your garden between July 12 and July 26.      

First Place: $200; Second Place: $150; Third Place: $100; Fourth Place: $75; Fifth Place: $50

Pocket Garden

Making the most of minimal space, pocket gardens can be in the ground, in raised beds, pots, or surprising containers such as a wagon or pair of old boots. All you need is a “pocket” of space and healthy plants of any type.

Curb Appeal

Your home’s first impression can be drastically changed by the addition of a newly painted front door, good lighting design, and, of course, landscaping. What makes people do a double take when they drive by? Planters, fountains, walkways, or window boxes... show us your home’s pretty face!
