Each year we invite gardeners of all abilities to enter our Aylesbury in Bloom Garden Competition. The competition is open to residents, organisations, businesses and schools within the parish of Aylesbury.

Judges visit gardens from June to August. Entrants are awarded either a certificate, bronze, silver, silver gilt or gold award at an awards evening.

Entrants can enter as many categories as they wish. These include Front Garden, Back Garden, Wildlife Garden and Edible Garden.

Entries are closed for 2024 and will reopen in 2025. For more information about the competition, please email Emma.

We’d like to thank Michael Anthony Estate Agents for supporting this competition.
