Community Betterment

We're proud to work with community groups and organizations on initiatives that prioritize beautification and environmental sustainability in our Town. 

Communities in Bloom

Our Communities in Bloom Committee organizes the Communities in Bloom Judges' Tour, a national program involving hundreds of municipalities showcasing their community's natural beauty. Judging criteria includes: 

• Community Appearance
• Environmental Action
• Heritage Conservation
• Tree Management
• Landscape
• Plant and Floral Displays

2022 Work Plan

This year, the CIB committee will create the CiB Judges' Tour itinerary and Community Profile Book. They are also planning to host nature walks, nature workshops, a community-wide garage sale, community clean-up, and so much more.

Kingsville Horticultural Society

Many of Kingsville's gardens are planted and maintained with the Kingsville Horticultural Society. When you see gardeners tending to flower beds at Town Hall, Lakeside Park, and other public properties across Town, chances are, it's one of these committed Hort Society volunteers. We appreciate everything they do to keep our Town bright and beautiful!

COVID Memorial Gardens

In 2021, Communities in Bloom and the Kingsville Horticultural Society worked together to create COVID memorial gardens, which symbolize unity and support for neighbours and friends affected by COVID. 

The gardens are at Rotary Park in Cottam, on Union Road in Ruthven, and next to Kingsville's Municipal Office on Division Road North.
