"Our organization values the entrepreneurial spirit and integrity of our members, and rewards excellence in craftsmanship as well as reverent stewardship of the earth through water conservation and sustainable practices. Clients welcome our high standards and aesthetically pleasing results!"

Award entries are judged by a panel of expert CLCA members from outside Orange County who spend four days closely inspecting each nomination for the quality of workmanship and materials utilized. Each landscaping entry must adhere to industry standards and have properly shown an execution of detail.

"Winning a Beautification Award enhances the prestige of participating companies and provides a chance for members to showcase their best work to peers and potential customers," said Cherie Ciotti-Roco, event chair, 2012 CLCA Beautification Awards and owner, CCR Landscape. "At the Beautification Awards ceremony, we promise an evening highlighting some of the best landscapes in Orange County."
