Since 2010, City Green has recognized the beautiful work of Paterson’s home gardeners in the annual Greenest Place in Paterson Garden Contest - an amazing initiative that celebrates all of the dedication and effort that Patersonians are investing into greening and beautifying the City.

​

Gardens can be entered into one or more of the garden categories:

• Vegetable Gardens

• Flower Gardens

• Container Garden

• Church Garden

• Municipal Garden

• School Garden

• Garden at a Business

• Art in the Garden

• Most Creative

• Curb Appeal

​

All gardens will be showcased on social media. Winners will be selected by a panel of judges for each garden category. To enter, submit your garden photos and contact information in the form below, by email to info@city-green.org, or by mail to 171 Grove St., Clifton NJ by July 31st.

​

We encourage all Paterson gardens to join our garden contest and celebrate your efforts with us at the in-person Garden Contest Awards Ceremony at the City Green Learning Garden in Eastside Park on August 31st (rain date September 1st)!
