Adopt-a-Flowerbed
The Adopt-a-Flowerbed program provides individuals or organizations a perfect opportunity to beautify local surroundings, create community spirit, and install a sense of pride and accomplishment as flowers bloom, attracting, birds and butterflies.
Please help beautify the City of Idaho Falls by adopting a flowerbed this spring/summer! Every year, the City of Idaho Falls relies on the help of volunteers to plant and care for 14 different flowerbeds around the City. Volunteers will design their flowerbed based upon the flowers grown in the the Maxine Elliot Greenhouse located in Rosehill Cemetery.
