​Welcome to:
KINGSBRIDGE IN BLOOM

A website dedicated to this fantastic group of volunteers​ who look after Kingsbridge Town all year round with floral displays for the enjoyment of all. They are motivated and take pride in the daily feedback of residents and visitors who just love what they do for this town.

** PRIZE DRAW **
​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.

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!

It’s really good to see people out and about again as we come out of lockdown. We have taken lots of appreciative comments from the public regarding our Spring displays of bulbs and plants which brings much satisfaction to our group.
Our main task in the last week has been to sow our wild flower seeds in the verges throughout the town. This year we have increased our pollinator friendly display areas by 50% to further increase our commitment to re-wilding in line with the  DCC and KTC’s initiative to tackle our climate emergency.
It was also great to have the Beaver Scouts help with the sowing of the wild flowers in the Recreation  Ground.
Their support and enthusiasm was very much appreciated.
