BRAMPTON CELEBRATES ITS BEAUTIFUL GARDENS

A garden recognized through the 2024 Gardens of Brampton program.

The City of Brampton, in partnership with the Brampton Horticultural Society and the Chinguacousy Garden Club, invites residents to show off their gardening efforts through the 2025 Gardens of Brampton Recognition Program.

Now in its fourth season, this program celebrates residents who are beautifying Brampton one garden at a time. Last year, the City received approximately 110 photo submissions and aims to celebrate even more local front gardens this year.

Submissions from residents who submitted photos of their front gardens by August 1, 2025 will be evaluated in partnership with the Brampton Horticultural Society and Chinguacousy Garden Club based on:

Visual appeal: Overall visual impact, colour and texture; harmony and balance. (Tip: Remove any winter lights!)

Overall appearance: Effective use of space and design coordination between plants and other elements.

General maintenance: Quality of care in pruning, weed and disease control; use of environmentally friendly methods like mulching and drought-tolerant planting.

Individuality: Creative use of special features like ponds, garden sculptures, rockeries or themed gardens.

Judging will take place in August, and those being recognized will be contacted in early September.

Whether you are an experienced gardener or just getting started, your front yard could be recognized for its creativity, care and contribution to a greener community.
