If there is one thing that brightens up the day, it’s a nice garden and if you like gardening why not enter this year’s new garden competition.
Anyone with green fingers and a passion for gardening can apply, you just need to be a tenant of Wigan Council.
The competition has 6 categories;
- Best garden front and rear
- Most improved or transformed garden. Please send before and after photos of an unloved space that has now been transformed
- Best Eco Garden. Making positive steps and doing your bit no matter how small, to make a difference to support local wildlife, improve our health and help tackle the climate crisis
- Best pots and baskets
- Best allotment/school, eligible sheltered housing or community garden scheme
- Best street
- Best young gardener (18 or under).
The competition will be judged by our volunteer judges and prizes will be presented for the winner and runner up for each category.
Please note: by entering into the competition, photos of your garden may be shared on our social media platforms.
We will be launching our successful gardening competition once again in Spring 2025. We are getting together soon with our tenant panel of judges to set dates for the launch and all the details you need to enter. We will update you again in the coming weeks.
