City Gardens Contest Deadline June 8

For 22 years Greater Newark Conservancy's City Gardens Contest has celebrated the rich diversity of Newark through the City Gardens Contest. From pavements to rooftops, churches to children, small space to large, many proud Newarkers have showcased their labor of love and the fruits of their labor. The Contest is open to home gardens, community gardens and business gardens and includes categories like best flower barrel, best children's garden, best organic garden and more. Showcase your Gardener's Spirit and join us this year! See winners and pictures from 2011.

Deadline for entries is June 8, 2011, with the preliminary judging taking place from June 21-23, and the final round of judging from August 9-11. The annual Awards Ceremony will be held on October 11th. For more information, contact Anne Haney at 973.642.4646, email ahaney@citybloom.org or visit citybloom.org and download an entry form.
