“Recognizing Morinville’s Best Gardens is important. Residents and businesses put a lot of time and effort into enhancing their gardens and properties,” said Chantal Godberson, Events and Culture Programmer in a release Thursday. “This amazing work builds pride and adds beauty to our community and should be acknowledged.”
