Main Street
Greenville Program to plant flowers
In 2007, Main Street Greenville created the Adopt-A-Box Flower Program
in downtown Greenville. Since then, more than 70 flower boxes and pots
are funded and planted each Spring by individuals and businesses
located in the community.
This year’s Downtown Planting Day will be held on Saturday, May 14th
from 8:00 - 11:00 am. During this time, more than 60 volunteers gather
downtown to plant the flowers along
South Broadway.
The Adopt-A-Box Flower Program was created to increase community pride
and provide a vibrant and colorful atmosphere. “The flowers add so much
curb appeal to the downtown district. We receive compliments on them
all season long,” said Amber Garrett, Executive Director of Main Street
Greenville.
The Adopt-A-Box Flower Program also receives sponsorship and assistance
from BASF Corporation, Miller Flowers Greenhouse & Florist, and
Dave Knapp Ford Lincoln.
If you would like to volunteer for this event, please contact Main
Street Greenville for instructions, all are welcome to help with this
community activity.
