The Bloomies

Morro Bay in Bloom is a charitable volunteer organization that is dedicated to the beautification of Morro Bay, using a national volunteer model that has transformed communities throughout America.

The model is simple:
1.)  Our planting, cleanup and maintenance activities last 2 hours.
2.)  Our weekly task goals are suited to the number of volunteers who participate.
3.)  Our tasks are varied to suit all abilities.

Morro Bay in Bloom’s community efforts include:

• Landscaping public spaces
• Tidiness and maintenance
• Models of sensible plantings
• Urban forestry
• Floral displays
• Environmental stewardship
• Heritage awareness
• Encouragement and support of public art

Morro Bay in Bloom is affiliated with America in Bloom, a national program that encourages civic beautification and enables communities to be evaluated on the following six criteria by accomplished professionals:  Landscaping public spaces, tidiness and maintenance, urban forestry, floral displays, environmental stewardship and heritage awareness.  The process of preparing a portfolio for the judges brings members of the community together.
