Fillmore Vision 2020-Civic Pride Committee has selected Chris and Brittney Patterson of 264 4th St. as the Yard of the Month for March 2012, for their lovely and serene yard. The family includes two children Dylan and Makoa both 5 years-old. The family has lived in the house for 1 year.

The yard is surrounded by White Birch, Maple and Pine trees. A meandering border of red bricks undulates and separates the lawn from the attractive greenery and decorative rocks.

The Patterson family enjoys sitting in their front yard to relax and enjoy the birds taking a drink from the bird bath. Sometimes from the inside of their home they see an occasional wild animal go by. We don't doubt that as the greenery in the front yard is both peaceful and attractive.

The family received an Otto & Son's Nursery gift certificate for $25.

Fillmore Vision 2020-Civic Pride's Statement of Vision is to "Foster a thriving small town atmosphere in which civic pride, personal well-being and a balanced economy are nurtured and protected. The committee meets on the third Wednesday of the month at Fillmore City Hall (upstairs conference room) at 1:30pm. The public is welcome. Please call 805.524.3841 for more information.
