The Adopt-A-Trail program encourages community responsibility for our environment through scheduled litter cleanups. This program is a year-long commitment (with the option to extend) where organizations, groups, businesses, families, and individuals (18 years of age and older) agree to participate in a minimum of 6 cleanups a year.
We appreciate your interest in keeping Raleigh clean!
I frequently hike or bike Raleigh’s wonderful greenway system. Seeing litter, graffiti, or overgrown vegetation on the trail reduces enjoyment of the greenway. I adopted a nearby trail to ensure a good greenway experience for my neighbors and to give back to the city parks department that provided this amenity. I encourage others to volunteer to keep our parks looking their best.
