Civic Development Project:
"Garden of the Month"
Our Garden of the Month committee selects an outstanding garden in our city, and
honors that garden with a sign (see picture) for the months of June through August.
This is a celebration of garden and gardener for all of the community to see, and helps
promote our endeavor to Keep Prescott Beautiful.
