Yards of Madison is a program designed to honor homeowners within the city of

Madison who, by their hard work and dedication, add to the attractiveness of their   neighborhoods by maintaining an exceptional yard.  A certificate of appreciation and  letter of congratulations are presented to those individuals or families who are selected by their neighborhood homeowner associations or are nominated by any Madison resident.

The program is on-going from May through October. Madison residents are encouraged to nominate any outstanding yard they see by going to www.madisonalbeautification.org and clicking on the Yards of Madison program to obtain a nomination form or email the pertinent information; i.e., name, address, phone number and email addresses of the nominee and the name of the person nominating the yard to Elizabeth Cuneo at Madisonbeautificationboard@yahoo.com.

The Board looks forward to recognizing our neighbors who work endless hours in their yards, bringing pride to the city of Madison.
