Flower Power
In 2008, the “Flower Power Committee” started a “grass roots” effort to beautify Main Street with hanging flower baskets on light poles and the Bell Tower in downtown Placerville.

Thank you to these generous sponsors for their sponsorship to this year's (2011) Rhythm & Blooms fundraising event:

• Orchid Sponsorship – Waste Connections
• Rose Sponsorship – Raffetto Enterprises
• Petunia Sponsorship – Lost Coast Brewery

To raise additional funds, the Placerville Downtown Association hosted its annual fundraiser on Saturday, March 19, 2011. They are also accepting donations and sponsorships throughout the year to be able to increase the number of blooming baskets in future years. This year will feature 50 hanging flower baskets in historic downtown Placerville from May through October.

Mother Lode Rehabilitation Enterprises (MORE) has been contracted to provide watering services for the baskets that do not have an automatic watering system. The beautification partnership is a collaborative effort between businesses, organizations, City government and individuals from the community that aim to bring color and smiles to historic Main Street.
