Join the Panel
Our judging panel is made up of plant enthusiasts, professional gardeners, and horticulture experts from across the region: not a marketing gimmick, real people who love this stuff. If that's you, we'd love your help.
Garden center staff, landscape designers, master gardeners, horticulture students, and serious hobbyists with a good eye for a well-loved space.
Reviewing a set of entries in your category, scoring them against our published criteria, and submitting feedback, roughly 2–3 hours during the judging window.
All judging happens remotely, on your own schedule, within a set window before winners are announced.
Judges are credited by name (and business, if applicable) on the Site and in our winner announcement.
