Adopt-A-Spot Program

The mission of the Village of Tarrytown’s Adopt-a-Spot program is to promote the involvement of the community in the upkeep and beautification of designated public spaces in the Village including road and parking lot-adjacent green spaces, and sections of parks within the Village. In so doing, the program aims to improve quality of life, build community relationships and enhance local ecological well-being. The program is associated with the Landscape Committee of the Tarrytown Environmental Advisory Council and the Tarrytown Pollinator Pathway which encourages the installation of native flowering plants, shrubs and trees.

The Village is fortunate to have a pre-existing network of volunteers engaged in the beautification of the Village. This program formalizes this work in public spaces, ensures adequate capacity to maintain the proliferation of newly planted areas, seeks to enhance community connections, and recognizes the commitment and work of engaged community members who want to contribute to making Tarrytown an even more wonderful place to live.
