Welcome

Enhance Escanaba was established in 2021 as a nonprofit volunteer organization. It is compromised of members who share a unified vision to enhance the appearance of the City of Escanaba.

Communities that are more welcoming and vibrant have a competitive advantage in attracting tourists and new residents, in stimulating economic development, and creating a thriving place for people to live, work, play, visit, and serve. Success starts with colorful plants and trees, engaged volunteers, a celebration of heritage, clean and healthy environments, and community vitality. – America In Bloom
