Tool Shed Program

The Tool Shed program provides Adams County residents with free access to yard and gardening tools. We are dedicated to supporting residents in maintaining their properties and helping others do the same. This program offers two opportunities to use tools in our Tool Shed program: yard cleanups (for individual use) and neighborhood cleanups.
