Adopt-A-Park, Trail or Dyke

The City of Richmond's Adopt-A-Park, Trail or Dyke Program encourages participants to contribute to the maintenance and care of Richmond's parks, dykes, trails and walkways. A partial list of possible work includes:

  • litter control
  • mowing grass areas
  • watering gardens and trees
  • edging grass and garden areas
  • weed control
  • pruning
  • reporting vandalism and repair needs to the City
  • park patrol
  • illegal dumping removal

Trail Adopted by the Chandler FamilyThere are many ways of supporting this program including graffiti removal and elements of other adoptive programs. City staff can help with the choosing of a park, trail or dyke section and provide garbage bags for each clean up with litter pick up. On-site recognition signs are also part of this program.
