The Saint Paul Department of Parks and Recreation, St. Paul Garden Club and the Ramsey County Mater Gardeners are now accepting nominations for the 2009 Golden Bloom Awards. These awards recognize beautiful gardens located within St. Paul City Limits. The awards encourage and celebrate gardening and beautification efforts by St. Paul residents and businesses.
In 2008, more than 190 awards were given out to residents, businesses and organizations whose yard or public gardens were nominated by fellow St. Paul residents. Nominations are judged by the Ramsey County Master Gardeners, and within each category judges award a Golden Bloom, Silver Bloom, Bronze Bloom or Good Gardener award.
The Golden Bloom Awards are sponsored by the Saint Paul Pioneer Press. All nominations must be received by July 8, 2009. Nomination forms can be found online at the Parks website or via email at blooming@ci.stpaul.mn.us.
