Changing the Landscape Awards open for entry

Professionals should submit projects that faced unexpected or unique challenges or produced unparalleled results for clients. 
The awards highlight exceptional work done across two categories with features in an upcoming print edition of Irrigation & Lighting. The deadline for entry is July 1.

The Changing the Landscape Awards, brought to you by the Irrigation Association, Fairfax, Virginia, has opened for this year’s entries. 

The Changing the Landscape Awards recognize outstanding professional work done by irrigation and landscape lighting industry professionals with winners’ projects featured in both print and online. 

Service providers can submit projects in one of two categories: irrigation and landscape lighting. The application deadline is July 1. 

Professionals should submit projects that faced unexpected or unique challenges or produced unparalleled results for clients. 

Any projects within the two Changing the Landscape categories that were completed or had follow-up work done during 2023 are eligible for entry at Irrigation & Lighting’s website. Submitted projects will be judged and winners will be selected by the Irrigation & Lighting Editorial Committee. Entrants will need to include information about the scope of the project and what made the work stand out as one of their best products in the past year. They will also need to provide high-resolution images of the project’s finished stage. Contractors may submit multiple projects, but each project can only be submitted to a single category.
