Help us reward sustainable landscaping

Winners will be selected from outstanding (1) Design and Aesthetics, (2) Preservation of Natural Environment, (3) Environmental Best Management Practices, and (4) Attraction to Wildlife. A team of horticultural and landscape architect judges will determine the winners using a point system with the four categories listed above (see link below). Winners will receive a recognition sign to be displayed on the property. Anyone may nominate a property. Nomination forms due by May 15, 2012.
