"Blooming in Tioga" Garden Contest

It's time for the annual "Blooming in Tioga" garden contest. There is no charge to enter, and any type of garden within Tioga County is admissible. The deadline for entries is June 29, with judging taking place July 5-11. Awards will be presented in each category and may be featured in the "Blooming in Tioga" garden tour in July.

Categories for the garden contest include Large Flower Garden, Small Flower Garden, Vegetable Garden, and Tropical or Theme Gardens (such as water garden, herb garden, etc.).

To enter, call the Tourism Office at 687-7440 and give them your name, address, phone number, and type of garden.

Last year, over 30 gardens were entered in the contest and organizers are hoping for more this year. The contest is sponsored by "Blooming in Tioga," a volunteer supported project of the Tioga county Tourism Office.
