Keep Greene Beautiful, a program of the Greene County Partnership, and Broyles Garden Center and Emporium, are kicking off the 4th annual Yard of the Month. The Yard of the Month will be a monthly award that recognizes the citizens of Greene County who contribute to the overall aesthetics and health of our community by maintaining exceptionally clean and beautiful properties.
During the Yard of the Month program no yard will be allowed to receive more than one award within the calendar year. The residential property of all current Greene County residents are eligible to participate. The yard upkeep may be done by the homeowner or a professional landscaper. The winner of the Yard of the Month is asked to display their award sign and are expected to maintain their yard in the same manner that allowed them to win their title of “Yard of the Month.”
The Yard of the Month will be open for nominations from the public now until the end of July. The Yard of the Month will be judged by volunteers of Keep Greene Beautiful. You can find all the information about this program and the judging criteria online at www.keepgreenebeautiful.com. Winners will receive a $50 gift card from Broyles Garden Center and Emporium.
