Grow, Bloom, Inspire!

Metro Blooms promotes and celebrates gardening, to beautify our communities and protect our environment.

Member gardeners and community volunteers are dedicated to ecologically friendly gardening education. Our raingarden workshops offer a do-it-yourself approach combined with expert help to put raingardening in the hands of gardeners and non-gardeners alike!

Each year, we celebrate the gardeners who beautfy our cities, and give top honors to those whose gardening helps to restore our environment.

The celebration of Blooms Day 2009 on May 16, 2009 was a wonderful event. Congratulations to the 2008 Garden Award Winners! We appreciate the work that you do to make the City of Minneapolis more beautiful and to restore our environment. Thank you to everyone who helped make Blooms Day 2009 a success!
