Annual Competition
The Shrewsbury in Bloom committee, in conjunction with the Town Council, holds a competition open to all residents known as the Town of Flowers.
The Shrewsbury in Bloom committee is calling on members of the public to nominate entries for the best residential front garden category, the best commercial/business premises category and the best pub/restaurant/café category.
So if you know someone who has perfect petunias or stunning hanging baskets all you need to do is complete a nomination form.
The competition is open to residents and businesses located within Shrewsbury Town Council’s 17 wards.
Entries should be submitted to enquiries@shrewsburytowncouncil.gov.uk, or by post to: Shrewsbury in Bloom Town of Flowers Competition, Livesey House, 7 St Johns Hill, Shrewsbury, SY1 1JD, by midday on 28th June 2024.
Judging will then take place in Mid July.
