 Communities in Bloom

People Plants and Pride – Growing Together

CIB is a Canadian non-profit organization committed to fostering civic pride, environmental responsibility and beautification through community participation and the challenge of a national program.

Participating communities are judged under categories that promote attractive and functional outdoor landscaped spaces. See past winners and view detailed information about the program.

If you are interested in spearheading a landscaping project to beautify your community, but do not want to be a part of a large program like Communities in Bloom, we want to support your initiative!

We offer a Community Beautification Grant for local projects to enhance civic pride through beautification.
