Flower planting in Downtown Longview

The Downtowners are thrilled to announce that America in Bloom is coming to Longview!

This national program celebrates vibrant communities by encouraging beautification, sustainability, and civic pride — and now, our very own downtown is taking root in something big. But this isn’t just about pretty flowers — it’s about people.

America in Bloom is a movement powered by community involvement, and we’re inviting YOU to be part of the transformation.

Join us for a Community Planting Day at 9 a.m. Sunday, May 4.

We’ll be gathering in downtown Longview, behind 1409 14th Ave (next to Red Canoe) to dig in and beautify the heart of our city with flowers, plants, and a whole lot of local love. Whether you have a green thumb or just want to get your hands dirty for a good cause, we welcome volunteers of all ages and abilities.

Come solo, bring your friends, or…
