As genuine admirers of the daffodil and its significant role in the industrial and cultural heritage of Gloucester County, we wish to share the basis of this admiration in an effort to draw others into our company.

You will meet the men and women of Gloucester's past who saw beauty and bounty in the daffodil and turned that vision into a prospering reality.  You will follow the cultural response of a community proud of its accomplishments.  And, as you are reminded of the presence of both in our county today, it is our hope that you will join us as we preserve the past by celebrating the present.

We are dedicated to the perpetual beautification of Gloucester County, centered around the daffodil, our adopted symbol of hope and prosperity, that reminds us each spring of its simple yet inspiring nature.
