Columbia Green promotes beautification of the Columbia area through landscaping, gardening, horticulture, education and conservation. Our primary goal is to beautify the Columbia area through major landscaping efforts. We seek to do that by:

Selecting and implementing major beautification projects, such as the gateways to our city that were landscaped in the early 1990s.

Promoting beautification in residential neighborhoods through the neighborhood grants program, which awards up to $5,000 in matching funds to local organizations.

Beautifying the islands, medians and flowerbeds that we have adopted twice a year with seasonal color.

Increasing the number of canopy trees through the Tree Initiative Grant Program which funds awards up to $2,500.
