Growing Dome Photo Contest Is Back!

After taking a year off, the Growing Dome Photo Contest is back, and we can’t wait to see what you’ve been growing.

Every Growing Dome tells a story. Some are bursting with tomatoes and tropical plants. Some are tucked into snowy mountain landscapes. Some are peaceful retreats, family food sources, school gardens, or homestead centerpieces. This contest is our chance to celebrate the creativity, beauty, and abundance of the Growing Dome community.

Whether your Dome is brand new or decades old, we invite you to share your favorite photos with us.

How to Enter

Submit your photos through our easy-to-use Google Form. Each Dome Owner may submit up to 5 photos. Please choose your favorite high-quality images that best capture the beauty, creativity, and story of your Growing Dome.

Community Voting

This year, we’re doing something new.

After submissions close, we will open voting to the Growing Spaces community through PollUnit. Community members will be able to view the entries and vote for their favorites.

Winners will be contacted via email on September 2nd and announced in our newsletter on September 5th.
