The Scarborough Garden Club is looking for home gardeners to honor this summer with a Green Thumb Award.
These gardens should not be professionally maintained, but maintained by the homeowner. The deadline for nominating a garden is July 25. Judging will begin thereafter. Only gardens in Scarborough are eligible. Vegetable gardens are not judged for the award. There will be gift certificates awarded from local garden centers for first, second and third place.
To place a nomination, call Barbara 207-839-4033 or
e-mail gzahari1@maine.rr.com.
The club is also seeking gardens to be on future garden tours. The first garden tour this year is Saturday, July 21, with 10 gardens on the tour. Some of the gardens on this year’s tour were previous Green Thumb Award winners.
