Mark Your Calendars for Judging

Once the nominations are in, the judges will roll up their sleeves after Memorial Day to start the evaluation process. They’ll be looking at a variety of criteria to determine which properties truly deserve that coveted award. Criteria include aspects like overall first impressions, creativity, unique characteristics, and of course, landscape design. You’re going to want to ensure your trees, shrubs, flowers, and even the grass showcase the best version of your property!

Who Can Enter?

So, what qualifies as an eligible property? To be in the running, your property should be at least one year old and must also be licensed by the City of Huntsville. If you’ve previously won a Beautification Award, you’ll need to reapply for the 2025 contest—no slackers here! Also, be aware that each entry form can include up to five different properties, but lists of properties submitted together will not be accepted.

Landscapers Take Note!

If you’re a landscaper planning to work with some outstanding properties, make sure you have a current business license ready to go. You’ll need to upload that license with your entry, but don’t worry; just one copy is required.

Questions? Get in Touch!

If you have any questions or need further information, don’t hesitate to reach out! You can send an email to the Beautification Board at [email protected] or give Huntsville’s Green Team a call at 256-532-5326. They’re more than happy to help you navigate through the application process.
