Winners of the National Awards of Landscape Excellence (NALE) were announced Sept. 15, 2021 via an online event hosted by Mark and Ben Cullen. The awards celebrate the best-of-the-best in landscape and horticulture, recognizing the outstanding work of companies across the country that are raising the level of professionalism in the Canadian landscape industry.
Presented by the Canadian Nursery Landscape Association (CNLA), the awards consist of five landscape awards, with each provincial association nominating members from its own provincial awards of excellence competition. In addition, the Green for Life Community Award recognizes incredible projects within communities that benefit the public through the construction or maintenance of green spaces. Lastly, two new awards were added this year: the CNLA Grower of the Year Award, and the CNLA Garden Centre of the Year Award.
