The Town of Yarmouth welcomes the Communities in Bloom Judges for the 2025 International Competition, from Monday, July 14th to Wednesday, July 16th. Judges will be touring the ENTIRE town, looking for general tidiness, clean streets and properties, beautiful gardens, parks and public areas. We will also impress them with our unique heritage, presented through our festivals, museums, walking tours, and community involvement.
Yarmouth is competing at the International level in 2025. This is an “All Hands on Deck” moment, and we need everyone to pitch in to make Yarmouth look its best. Our parks and public works crews, Communities in Bloom volunteers, Garden Club members, Solid Waste Park staff, businesses and private citizens have all been working hard to make the town beautiful. You can pitch in by cutting your grass, trimming your edges, picking up litter - every little bit helps!
