The Yard of the Month Award recognizes Watertown residents and businesses who take pride in their properties and help make our community a more beautiful place. Winners are selected in June, July, and August in each of Watertown’s five wards, along with Whimsical and Business categories.
Each winner receives a Yard of the Month sign to display, a certificate of recognition signed by the mayor, recognition through local media outlets and, of course, bragging rights.
As the 2026 season comes to a close, the committee extends its appreciation to everyone who puts time and care into making their yards, businesses and neighborhoods look their best. Special thanks also go to those who nominated friends, neighbors and local businesses throughout the summer. Your nominations help us recognize the people whose efforts add beauty, character and pride to our community.
Congratulations to our August winners and to all of the 2026 Yard of the Month honorees!
