About Marigolds on Main Street

Marigolds on Main Street is celebrating its 16th year of tremendous success. The project began in 1997 and has served as a model for similar planting initiates both nationally and worldwide through the Communities in Bloom program.

Students from four local elementary schools will begin this project as a part of their science curriculum by planting marigolds seeds in their classrooms in March. On Thursday, June 6, 2013 these students will gather on Main Street to plant over 40,000 marigolds.
