“Trees in the Cemetery”
Tour Guides:
Anita Clevenger and Fran Clarke
The beauty of the canopy is one of the first-noticed
features of our magnificent garden cemetery!
Learn about the lovely trees, old and young, that share
space with the unique grave markers and statuary as you
stroll through this important historic and botanical
landmark. Master Gardener, Anita Clevenger and Fran
Clarke, noted tree expert, will identify species,
describe trees old and new and share stories as you
enjoy the shade on this Saturday morning tour.
The tour commences at 10 am from the Cemetery’s main
gate at Broadway and 10th Street. Visitors may park
across the street from the 10th Street Gate and meet at
the cemetery entrance. Held under the auspices of the
City of Sacramento Division of History & Science, the
Old City Cemetery Committee, Inc. presents this tour as
a public service.
For tour information, please call (916) 448-0811. Tours
are free though donations for the restoration of the
cemetery are greatly needed and appreciated |
