Virtual Fareham in Bloom – time running out to enter!

There is just a week to go to enter this year’s virtual Fareham in Bloom competition.

Entries for the competition, which is being held online due to the pandemic, close on Friday 2 July.

There are six categories to choose from, so there is something for everyone, no matter how big or small your outdoor space or feature is. The categories are:

Best Garden – A garden of any size, front or back
Commercial – Shop fronts, pubs, businesses and schools
Something Small - Hanging baskets, window boxes or unusual garden features
Community Floral Display - Your street, community centre or sheltered housing grounds
Young Green Fingers – Something the kids have planted or grown
The Edible Garden – Growing your own produce at home or on your allotment

Entrants simply need to email a photograph of their garden and a brief description to fib@fareham.gov.uk. There will be two winners per category, both of whom will win a prize.

Executive Member for Streetscene at Fareham Borough Council, Councillor Ian Bastable, said: “There are some wonderful gardens and displays around the Borough which our green fingered residents work very hard on. So, if you have a garden or outdoor space to be proud of, why not show it off and enter our virtual Fareham in Bloom competition!
