Neighborhoods in Bloom

The Neighborhoods in Bloom program helps grow neighborhood and Town pride, support community and neighborhood partnerships, encourage water conservation and low-water use landscaping, and promote visually appealing storefronts, front yards and neighborhood parks through the following events:

• The Beautification Awards Program celebrates the beauty of the Town's neighborhoods and businesses. Awards are presented to residents and business owners who take significant strides toward making the Town a more beautiful place through exterior landscaping. Throughout February and March, residents have the opportunity to submit landscaping projects for beautification awards in five categories – residential, business, neighborhood, community partnership, and makeover.
  
• Cactus Fiesta is a free public event offering residents an opportunity to learn about the beauty and life of the Sonoran Desert and about providing care and maintenance for low-water-use landscaping. The event includes presentations and question-and-answer sessions with experts, a variety of children’s activities, door prizes and vendor displays. 
  
• The Coloring Contest is designed just for the children! Each fall, coloring contest entry forms are made available. Entries are judged in three age groups: 3-5, 6-8, and 9 and older. Winners are notified and prizes are presented at a Town Council meeting!
  
• The Garden Show is a free public event that offers residents opportunities to learn from experts about various gardening and landscaping techniques. Local vendors demonstrate products and share tips for garden and landscape beautification projects.
