Bring Hightstown to Full Bloom

Help Downtown Hightstown Inc., purchase flowers used to adorn the area.

Some days it feels like spring. Other days, well, it feels as though winter may never end.

But there is no surer sign that spring is in sight than the beautiful flowers that adorn downtown Hightstown.

Help Downtown Hightstown Inc., get the borough in full bloom by purchasing some of these flowers, which will adorn light posts, Memorial Park, the Fountain at Point and other public areas.

Many think these flowers are purchased by Hightstown Borough, but no, it’s Downtown Hightstown Inc. and the generosity of local business owners, residents and friends who care about our town, according to the group's website.

To keep this project going (now in its 11th year), the group needs your help! Downtown Hightstown, Inc.* is asking local business owners, residents and friends to donate $50 (the cost of one basket of flowers) to help meet its goal of $6,500. However, if that is too much, any contribution, no matter how small, would be greatly appreciated. Your contribution will help brighten the downtown area, entice people to patronize our downtown family owned restaurants and businesses, and beautify the town.
