BROOKVILLE — Leaf & Blossom Garden Club picked State Farm Insurance as the winner of this year’s ‘Merchant Flower Planter Contest.’

This contest was started in 2010 as a Montgomery County Beautification grant project. Leaf & Blossom Garden Club members planted flowers in the containers while merchants were in charge of taking care of them.

The project took place every year except 2020 because of Covid-19. Leaf & Blossom Garden Club thanks all of the merchants in the Market Street area for their participation in the contest.
