We understand the importance of transformative civic projects to intown Atlanta neighborhoods. The BeltLine project promised a continuous path encircling the Atlanta connecting old railroad corridors. The 33 miles (53 km) of multi-use paths would spur parks and trails connecting 45 diverse neighborhoods.
The Eastside Trail was the first phase and connected the neighborhoods our team members live and work in – Midtown to Old Fourth Ward with Inman Park, Virginia Highlands, Ponce City Market, Krog Street Market along the way. We decided to adopt the Atlanta Beltline in 2011.
The Adopt-the-Atlanta BeltLine program is a partnership between Park Pride, Trees Atlanta, the Atlanta BeltLine Partnership, and Atlanta BeltLine Inc. The program offers opportunities to contribute in helping improve and maintain the Atlanta BeltLine.

About Adopt the Atlanta Beltline Program
The Adopt the Atlanta BeltLine program is a partnership between Park Pride, Trees Atlanta, the Atlanta BeltLine Partnership and Atlanta BeltLine Inc. The program provides opportunities for businesses and community groups to play a direct role in improving and maintaining the Atlanta BeltLine corridor. Sponsor support the management and equipment needs of the adoption program.
Sponsors can volunteer alone, alongside other businesses and community groups or assist the efforts of existing “Friends of the Park” groups. The program depends on the enthusiasm of volunteers, community groups and businesses to improve the appearance, accessibility, and safety of the Atlanta BeltLine Corridor. Picking up litter, maintaining greenspace through weeding and invasive plant removal and reporting maintenance concerns, vandalism, or suspicious activities helps the cause.
We can use extra hands! Become a sponsor and an adopter! Sponsors receive recognition for supporting the overall program and adopters are responsible for volunteering on a regular basis to ensure their segment remains safe and clean.
