Thanks to everyone who participated in this year's event and congratulations to the winners. See you next year!
2005 Details:
The Wilmington City Gardens Contest, now in its 23rd year, recognizes Wilmington gardeners for their contributions to a greener city. Volunteers can participate by either entering their gardens, or by judging on one or both judge dates. For those who have never entered or judged, or for those needing a refresher, a workshop is provided with a behind the scenes look at how the garden contest works and what criteria is used to determine winning gardens. No previous experience is necessary. This event truly brings together the best of what Wilmington gardeners and judges have to offer. Refreshments are served at the workshop and both judge dates. The Kick-Off Event takes place at the Hattie Phelan Community Garden, 10th and Pine Streets, Wilmington. The workshop and judging dates take place at DCH.
For more information contact Marcia Stephenson, City Gardens Contest Coordinator, at (302) 658-6262, ext. 29 or at mstephenson@dehort.org.
