This year's contest features 39 categories across 5 disciplines including:
Writing • Photography • Speaking and Broadcast • Digital Media • Publisher/Producer
WRITING
Our writing category invites submissions across both consumer-facing and trade publications regardless of the size of the publication. We encourage entries that showcase the best of horticultural writing in magazines and newspapers as single articles, or as a series or ongoing column of articles, including online blogs. We invite submissions in the marketing category, such as catalogs or brochures, marketing newsletters, and calendars (judged for the content, not the photography). We also recognize the dedication required for publishing a book for general fiction and non-fiction readership, as well as a technical/reference books.
SPEAKING and BROADCAST
We have consolidated several of the speaking and broadcast awards and invite entries in live, television, and radio categories.
DIGITAL MEDIA
We are pleased to accept entries into the social media, website, video, podcasts, and special digital projects.
PUBLISHER
For publishers, producers, and packagers only. Must be consumer-oriented unless the category specifies trade publications are eligible.
