Support the Funds for Flowers campaign

The Cedar Mill Business Association is making plans to enhance our downtown area once more with beautiful flower baskets all along Cornell Road and vicinity. And we have plans for more!

Flower baskets will be up from May 16 - September 30. The baskets are a project of the CMBA’s Downtown Enhancement Committee. The Committee was formed in order to create an identity for our downtown area. Cedar Mill is an unincorporated area and as such does not have a city government or taxes that go to fund these projects, so the Downtown Enhancement efforts rely on members of the community, as well as business owners in and around Cedar Mill, to donate the funds to make the display possible.

The owners of the Timberland commercial area have expressed an interest in having flower baskets adjacent to their property along Barnes. And we’re making plans for a display of greenery and lighting to spark up the area during the dark winter months, too. We’re also working to replace the very worn-out “Welcome to Cedar Mill” signs that were placed at the four “entries” to Cedar Mill many years ago.

To donate funds or learn how your business or organization can be involved, visit www.cedarmillbiz.com or email Rosalea Peters, Vice President of the CMBA, at rosalea@weomedia.com. Information will also be available at the CMBA booth during the Cedar Mill Farmer's Market, Saturdays from May-October. (Please note that a contribution to Downtown Enhancement is not a charitable contribution.)

And keep an eye out for information regarding a BBQ fundraiser on the “opening” weekend of May 16th as an additional way to contribute to the flower fund.
