Mrs. Lewis is celebrating her April 7th birthday early as she was informed that her home (1018 Harthorn) was selected as the April Yard of the Month by Fillmore Civic Pride/Vision 2020.

The Lewis family has lived in the home for eight years moving to Fillmore after 28 years in Carpinteria.

The house is full of color with impatiens and geraniums. “I feel that plants are the ribbon around the package of the house, the icing on the cake so to speak,” said Mrs. Lewis. Purple allium has been trimmed and coming back. Also a type of white allium is in the large pots and in front of the porch. Pink flowered bushes bloom this time of year and are gone by summer. “I enjoy the coziness and welcoming feeling and the large shade tree already here helps,” stated Mrs. Lewis.

Congratulations and happy birthday to Mrs. Lewis on their beautiful home.

Fillmore Civic Pride/Vision 2020 whose vision statement is “to foster a thriving small-town atmosphere in which civic pride, personal well-being and a balanced economy are nurtured and protected” meets on the 3rd Wednesday of the month at Fillmore City Hall (2nd floor conference room) at 1:30pm.
