MLK Day of Service Community Clean Up
Historic Fair Hill is a 5 acre historic site where notable abolitionists and women's rights activists were buried in the 1800s. Today it serves as a community space, arboretum, and garden. We seek to carry on the ideals
of those changemakers through initiatives focused on literacy, food justice, and greening.
On MLK Day of Service, volunteers will clean up trash along the blocks surrounding the property to help beautify our neighborhood. Children are welcome, if accompanied by an adult, and can help with raking, moving tree branches, and garden work on the grounds. The activity starts at 10AM. At noon, volunteers will gather by a fire to reflect on Dr. King, sing Freedom hymns, and read aloud excerpts from speeches.
This is an outdoor activity, so participants should dress accordingly. We will have a limited amount of trash grabbers, so if you have your own, please bring. The burial ground is located at 2901 Germantown Ave. between
Indiana and Cambria Streets. The gates to the grounds are on Cambria and Indiana. Street parking is available. The 23 bus stops at the burial ground.
