The all but forgoten cemetery encircled by landfill will get some much needed love. 10AM, East End, South of 26th street, East side of the street. If you are up for the challenge of fighting w**ds, reeds, mud and uneaven ground, bring your bug spray, working gloves, w**d wackers, rakes and work boots. We will be doing a bit of archaeology, finding and documenting what is left and where.
