Gardens for a Greener Tommorow
Amateur Gardening Competition
This year’s Redbridge in Bloom brings a new chapter in our communal journey towards a greener, more sustainable future. Under the theme of “Gardens for a Greener Tomorrow” we invite you to create a garden to nurture, planting today’s gardens for nature to thrive. Whether it’s a sustainable planet-friendly garden, a welcoming front garden, or an innovative school gardening project, each category celebrates the unique contributions of our residents. Join us in planting the seeds of change, nurturing our environment, and growing our community spirit. Together, let’s cultivate a legacy of sustainability and beauty for generations to come.
In conjunction with this year’s Redbridge in Bloom theme, “Gardens for a Greener Tomorrow” We will guide you through the seasons with valuable insights and practical advice aimed at fostering a greener and more sustainable approach to gardening and daily practices.
Planet-Friendly Gardening
Redbridge in Bloom encourages and promotes gardening techniques that benefit our communities, wildlife, and the planet. This year Vision RCL is putting sustainability at the heart of gardening, mitigating the climate and biodiversity crises while tackling social issues like loneliness, obesity, and mental health.
Vision RCL is raising awareness of best gardening practices through our Volunteering sessions. Making small changes such as saving water, using peat-free soil, increasing wildlife-friendly habitats in our open outdoor spaces, and reducing surfaces that give rise to flooding can make a significant difference in achieving a Sustainable, Planet-Friendly Garden.
