Neighborhood Beautification
Hammond Park Garden
Bring beautification and neighborhood revitalization down to the smallest unit, your own street. Street by street, neighbors inspire each other by setting an example of environmental and community stewardship.
The City of Eureka’s Neighborhood Beautification Program is here to help you become a steward of your neighborhood. Our goal is
to strengthen our neighborhoods by supporting volunteers to work together to maintain and beautify our streets contributing to a sense of pride and connection. You can participate as a Neighborhood Volunteer or Volunteer Community Coordinator to work together to beautify Eureka.
