Filey in Bloom
Filey has experienced many changes from its time as a Roman
harbour through to the present day with a rich reputation for a
peaceful, traditional holiday resort, and the Filey in Bloom group
actively seek to maintain and enhance Filey's natural
environment.
The In Bloom group has representatives from a number of bodies
such as the Rotary Club, Allotments and Tourism, members of the
community, Friends of Filey Parks, and is closely supported by
Filey Town Council and Scarborough Borough Council.
Regular meetings are held, with regular events from Be Nice to
Nettles Day and Teddy Bear's Picnics through to bulb planting and
raising awareness of safety in the garden.

This very popular competition is run by Filey in Bloom, in
partnership with Scarborough Borough Council. Judging takes
place during early summer, with the awards ceremony usually being
held in September at the Allotment Show.
Discounted Hanging Basket Scheme
We offer a discounted hanging basket scheme for local shops and
businesses in Scarborough, Whitby and Filey, which means that we

period. Baskets usually go up in mid June and stay in situ
until October. If you are interested in this scheme please
contact the nurseries on: nurseries@scarborough.gov.uk.
Closing date for orders each summer is 15th May.
