​Kingsbridge in South Devon is a lovely traditional market town that sits on the edge of a sea estuary surrounded by lush, green rolling countryside. That natural beauty inspired a small group of volunteers to enhance their town bringing floral colour to its very heart.
In 2007  those volunteers named themselves Kingsbridge in Bloom (KIB) and ever since then the team has grown from strength to strength. The team's dedication working all year round has won the admiration of the town's community and visitors alike. Making Kingsbridge a beautiful place to live and visit. 
The safety of the team and our community is our prime consideration. Pictures taken mainly by Gill Matthews and Ruth Benton will be displayed here to show the town remains looking beautiful. See below......

K.I.B. work in co-ordination with the"RHS Britain in Bloom" scheme. It has brought Kingsbridge success and national fame winning Britain in Bloom Gold medals and many other national accolades.  Click here to take a look at the RHS Britain in Bloom website, particularly the home page video, to inspire you to join us!
​Such praise just confirms how successful Kingsbridge in Bloom is and an inspiration to carry on and  progress even further. This site will enlighten you to the activities and support Kingsbridge in Bloom embraces. Remember none of this would happen without those vital volunteers and hope the information within may encourage you to join our friendly group. Our activity brings inspiration, friendship, laughter and above all the admiration of the community that benefits from all that effort.
A key sponsor who appreciates all the effort KIB puts in, is
The Creeks End Inn on the square who always supports the team with refreshments after a hard day tending the towns flora.  A big thank you goes to the manager Terry Harvey who always has a welcoming smile!

The group are out again in force, socially distancing and working safely and it feels as though we are getting slowly back to normal.
We are on plan with our 2021 campaign and it is still quite a challenge to remove the weeds from some of our displays and prepare the ground in readiness for our main planting at the end of the month.
Some of our home propagated plants have been planted but the weather has not been good for us with night frosts and a bitterly cold N/E wind which has tended to dry the ground. It is very rare for us to have to water at this time of year.
It is great to see an upsurge of interest in horticulture since the COVID lockdown restrictions and we have been delighted to welcome new members to our enthusiastic team.
