The Adopt and Island program is open to all local residents and businesses.  Areas in the public right of way are "adopted" and maintained by their sponsors through plantings, mulching, and seasonal cleanups.  Island sponsors agree to maintain their "island" for a 3 year period. 

This program has been very successful, with very little turnover in island sponsors.  If you are interested in participating, please contact a garden club member, or send email to:

"Nature will bear the closest inspection.

She invites us to lay our eye level with her smallest leaf,

and take an insect view of its plain."

--Henry David Thoreau
