DI Garden Club to resume Yard of the Month picks in April

The Daniel Island Garden Club’s Yard of the Month contest highlights and celebrates homes around the island that display front yard landscapes that best represent the community. There are seven zones in which homes are viewed and judged resulting in seven winners each month! Each winning home is presented with a special DI

Garden Club temporary plaque for its front yard to showcase that it was selected.

 

The judges are looking for all different types of landscapes as long as they meet the design requirements of the Daniel Island ARB. Additionally, there are some basic rules the property must follow to receive the award and bragging rights:

 

• The landscape must continue to be maintained. 

 

• The property must be in good standing with the POA. 

 

• Lastly, the selected family agrees to have their name and picture published in The Daniel Island News.

 

The 2023 YOM season is May-September with two additional holiday decorating contests for the Halloween and Festival of Lights seasons. These holiday decorating contest winners will have special plaques displayed for the best-decorated homes.

 

The Garden Club YOM judges will start knocking on doors around the middle of April, so give them a warm and welcoming southern greeting and you might receive a pleasant surprise! 

 

Don’t worry if you are not home, a note will be left for you to get back to the judges within two days.
