The first Columbus Yard of the Month for 2025 has been awarded in March, with the home of Neal Adcock and Laurie Adcock taking the grand prize.
The chairperson of the Yard of the Month and Community Beautification awards decided a hiatus was best due to weather conditions in January and February causing “winter damage to yards,” according to Velma Harrington, a member of the committee.
The home of the Adcocks, located on 414 Charter St. in Columbus, was given the first crown of the year for their efforts.
“The front flower bed has Crape Myrtle along with purple salvias along the front windows,” said the committee. “There are two large planters with flowers in full bloom including geraniums. Gerbera Daisies, Verbenas, and yellow Nemesia. Lantana is in a small Texas planter by the front door. The yard is very neat, tidy and beautiful.”
