Win an Exciting Makeover for Your Local Bus Stop

Posted: 21st May 2012

Win a unique chance to make your local bus stop the focal point of your community with the Edible Bus Stop and Cleeve Nursery.

The Edible Bus Stop Project has been set up to help communities volunteer across the UK to transform neglected and disused sites along transport networks into useful spaces for neighbourhoods to nurture together and enjoy.

If you believe that your local bus stop would benefit from an exciting makeover by the high profile Edible Bus Stop Project and Cleeve Nursery - and your community would welcome the challenge of working together to support it - complete the competition entry form below.

The winner of the competition will be announced at the National Gardening Show at The Royal Bath & West Showground (Friday August 31 to Sunday September 2) where you will be able to see for yourself the Edible Bus Stop’s feature - which will  then be transported after the event to the lucky community’s bus stop.
The acclaimed Cleeve Nursery and Garden Centre near Bristol will be supplying the flowers and plants for the feature. The winning community will then continue to tend the garden, grow a friendlier neighbourhood and create a focal point of pride in the process.

The Edible Bus Stop exhibit will be part of the successful Bright Green Shoots initiative which was launched at last year’s show. The brainchild of Jo Thompson, one of the UK’s rising stars in garden design and a recent winner of a Gold medal at Chelsea Flower Show, this will showcase her choice of the most interesting entrepreneurs in the horticultural and gardening world.
