Yard of the Month Returns to Cinco Ranch II in April
Starting April through September, the Beautification Committee will be selecting a “Yard of the Month.” Because of the large size of our community, judging will occur in a different area of the community each month. In order to be considered for judging, your yards must be ready by the first of each month, during the specified season of April through September. Please note that yards may only win once. Winners will have a Yard of the Month sign placed in their yard, photos placed on mycincoranch.com, an e-Note, and in the My Cinco Ranch Newsletter.
The Cinco Ranch II Yard of the Month has been established to promote goodwill and reward exemplary lawn care in the community. The purpose of the program is to recognize neighbors who demonstrate above-average efforts in maintaining their property, thereby contributing to the overall appearance of the community at large. The program is administered by volunteers from the Cinco Ranch II Beautification Committee.
Need help with gardening ideas or solutions to stubborn issues in your garden? The Fort Bend County Master Gardeners (FBMG) are here to help! Master Gardeners are volunteers who assist the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension in promoting research-based horticultural practices to help residents succeed in creating and maintaining their home landscapes. In Fort Bend County, classes begin with 60 hours of comprehensive training conducted by Texas A&M professors and Extension specialists and delivered over 12 weeks. That training is supplemented with Fort Bend County local classes to round out the training.
In short, these folks really know their stuff, and they are intimately knowledgable about horticulture in your specific region! Contact the FBMG Help Desk at 281-341-7068 or fortbendmg@ag.tamu.edu.
If you would like to submit a yard for review, request more information, or become a part of the Beautification Committee, please contact cr2beautification@gmail.com.
Happy gardening, and best of luck!
