About Front Yards in Bloom

Front Yards in Bloom has played an important role in bringing communities together in the City of Edmonton since 1999. Every summer, people nominate their neighbours, family and friend’s yards to be recognized in 6 categories: general yards, edible yards, natural yards, tiny yards, balconies in bloom and the public space category. Nominees receive a nomination package hand-delivered to their yard, and have a chance to be a top finalist and receive recognition at the Edmonton In Bloom Awards.

 

Front Yards in Bloom is a partnership of the City of Edmonton, the Edmonton Horticultural Society and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers.
