Volunteerism is the heart of America in Bloom. Look around Webster Groves, your neighborhood and your own yard for ideas. Gather a group and start your own America in Bloom project: 
 

·        Plant a community garden

·        Clean up a median

·        Start a compost pile

·        Help elderly neighbors with yardwork

·        Encourage recycling on your block

·        The list is endless!

 

Whatever you choose to do:

 

Tell us about it so we can document your project for the America in Bloom judges. Just email Shawnell Faber.

 

Tell others about it so they can help!  Here are some marketing tools to make it easy to get your project started:
