Adopt-a-Spot Program
Our Adopt-a-Spot program offers great opportunities for businesses, neighborhood groups, faith groups and civic organizations who want to have a positive impact on their community. This program helps to enhance community pride by maintaining clean and attractive parks, green spaces, nature trails and roadways for residents and visitors to enjoy.
An adoption is an agreement with the city for a minimum of two years, so make sure your group wants to make a long-term commitment before beginning the adoption process.
If you would like to adopt a park, street or median, please contact Keep Fort Worth Beautiful at KFWB@fortworthtexas.gov or by phone at 817-392-2046 to begin the contract process.
