Stuart Magazine: Adopt A Road

By Holly Gambrell for Stuart Magazine

Roadside litter is not only an eyesore, but is also hazardous to the beautiful oceans and ecosystems that make Martin County such an amazing place. 

Keep Martin Beautiful’s Adopt-A-Road campaign is seeking volunteers to help reduce litter and keep roads in Martin County trash-free. 

The program offers businesses, civic groups, school groups, places of worship, families and individuals the opportunity to adopt a minimum one-mile section of county-maintained roadside for the purpose of litter reduction. 

Teams make a commitment to remove litter along the adopted area at least six times a year. Keep Martin Beautiful provides safety vests, trash bags and pick-up sticks.
