Adopt-A-Street or Spot
Is there a Hyde Park street or spot that is near and dear to your heart? Perhaps it is the street you live on, a park you visit with your kids, or a route you normally walk or run. Does it bother you to see it filled with litter? If the answer is YES, be part of the solution and adopt-a-street or spot to help keep Hyde Park litter-free. You can sign up as an individual, family, community group, or business. All we ask is that you agree to clean up your adopted route at least once per month.

Planting hopeThis summer, Keep Hyde Park Beautiful partnered with Speak for the Trees Boston on their #NewDecadeNewTrees campaign to grow and improve Boston's urban tree canopy by providing free or "pay what you want" trees for residents to plant in their yards. Over the course of two weekends, volunteers distributed 71 Yoshino Cherry, Eastern Redbud, and Northern Red Oak trees to dozens of grateful Hyde Park residents.
