Make Waltham Forest greener: adopt!
The Council is encouraging local residents, community groups and businesses to do their bit for climate change by adopting trees and flower beds across the borough.
Adopting a flower bed provides local groups with an opportunity to plant and maintain a local flower bed. Find out more about adopting a flower bed.
Businesses and individuals can adopt trees in the borough to highlight their green credentials.
