Broomfield Park volunteers achieve Six Enfield in Bloom Awards
Park Volunteers recognised for their care and maintenance of Broomfield Park
Enfield in Bloom is an annual competition, encouraging local residents, schools, and businesses to participate in creating beautiful floral displays across the borough. Enfield in Bloom aims to enhance the local environment, promote community involvement, and celebrate horticultural creativity.
In recent years Friends of Broomfield Park have participated in the award scheme – with some considerable success – but for the 2025 Award we are delighted to announce our best ever results. Six awards – three Golds, two Silvers and a Bronze – recognise the exceptional quality of horticultural maintenance and improvement across all of Broomfield Park’s volunteer Projects.
In the category “Exceptional Horticultural Contribution for the Local Community” both the Broomfield Park walled garden and Conservatory won gold awards. A silver award for the Broomfield Park Community Orchard completes the Broomfield hat-trick in this category.
Two projects were recognised in the “Best Environmental / Wildlife Garden” with the wildflower Meadow awarded silver and the wildlife pond achieving the third Broomfiled Gold Award.
The Broomfield Park community Growing Space was awarded bronze in the “Best Innovative Growing Space” section.
The awards are a testament to the hugely impressive work of FoBP volunteer groups who work tirelessly to nurture and cherish our park. Alongside the volunteers, resident horticulturalist Victoria Black and the Enfield Council Parks Management Team and gardeners must also be celebrated for their work on these projects.
