New Business Landscape Award to Encourage Oxford Beautification

The Oxford Garden Club and the Oxford-Lafayette County Chamber of Commerce have partnered to recognize local businesses that help to beautify Oxford by creating and maintaining exceptional exterior landscapes and curb appeal.
The Business Landscape Award will be presented the first Saturday of each new quarter of the year, with the next award scheduled for Saturday, April 7. The winning businesses will receive a certificate of appreciation in addition to a Business Landscape Award sign placed in the front of the business for the duration of the quarter.
“So many of our local businesses do so much to enhance our quality of life here in Oxford with their efforts to create such pleasing landscapes,” said Christy Knapp, chairman of the Oxford Garden Club’s Beautification/Plant It Pink Committee. “I’m thrilled that the Chamber has agreed to partner with us to recognize those businesses that do so much to beautify our community.”
In January, members of the Oxford Garden Club’s Beautification Committee awarded the first Business Landscape Award to the Oxford Clinic for Women, located at 2610 South Lamar in Oxford.
“We are happy to partner with the Oxford Garden Club on this new award for our business community. Oxford is known for its beautiful landscaping, one of the many features of our community that makes us stand out,” said Pam Swain, senior vice president of the Oxford-Lafayette County Chamber of Commerce. “We are proud the Garden Club wants join with us in recognizing those businesses that take an extra step in adding to our diverse beauty in the area. We congratulate Oxford Clinic for Women for winning the first honor.”
After April 7’s award presentation, awards for the next two quarters will be given on July 7 and October 6.
