Weed Warriors Public Workday at Citizens Cemetery 11/20/21 (REGISTRATION REQUIRED)

**NOTE: This session is limited. If you are not registered for this event, you will be asked to volunteer another time.

Join Ijams Nature Center's Natural Resource Team for a Weed Warriors workday to help the Citizens Cemetery Group improve part of Eastport Cemetery (aka Citizens Cemetery), Knoxville's oldest Black cemetery, founded in 1836. 

Volunteers will park at 2226 Cityview Ave., Knoxville, TN 37915 and take a short walk to meet at 9:30 a.m. at the cemetery on Fuller Ave., where it intersects with Sanders Ln. and Addison St. In addition to invasive species removal, this workday will include a lot of brush dragging/removal, so there will be plenty to do, even if you have limited experience! Wear closed-toed shoes, long-sleeved shirts and pants to protect yourself from thorns and poison ivy. Wear layers and bring a jacket if it's cold. BRING WATER!
