Green-fingered residents, businesses, and community groups still have time to enter the much-loved Best Kept Garden Competition, but be quick – entries close in just one week on Tuesday 15th July!<\/p>

With Haywards Heath\u2019s gardening community still buzzing from the town\u2019s Gold-winning success in the 2024 Britain in Bloom awards, the competition offers a brilliant opportunity to celebrate local pride, creativity, and community spirit. Organised by Haywards Heath Town Council and the In Bloom Committee, the annual contest shines a spotlight on the very best public-viewing garden spaces across town.<\/p>

There are four categories for entries: front gardens and balconies, communal gardens, business frontage and allotments.<\/p>

Whether you’re an experienced gardener or have simply created a cheerful corner in your front yard, this is your chance to show it off – or nominate someone whose garden you admire!<\/p>

Entry forms are available via the Town Council website and must be submitted by Tuesday 15th July 2025. Judging will take place later in July, with winners honoured at a summer awards tea party at the Town Hall.<\/p>

A spokesperson at the Haywards Heath Town Council commented: \u201cWith just one week to go, I\u2019d urge anyone thinking about entering to go for it! This competition is a celebration of everything that makes Haywards Heath green, vibrant, and community-minded. Whether your garden is big or small, neat or wild – every flower and vegetable counts.\u201d<\/p>

The competition not only celebrates gardening, but also supports the broader aims of Haywards Heath In Bloom, a volunteer-led initiative dedicated to protecting green spaces, enhancing biodiversity, and keeping the town clean and beautiful. New volunteers are always welcome.<\/p>

To enter, nominate someone, or find out more, visit the website<\/a> or contact the Town Council on 01444 455694.<\/p>

Let\u2019s keep Haywards Heath blooming – there\u2019s still time to be part of it!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
