Greenwood is one of the oldest cemeteries in Tuscaloosa County, having been laid out shortly after the first survey of the city of Tuscaloosa in 1821. In it are the graves of many of early Tuscaloosas most prominent citizens. Among those is Dr. John Drish, a famed doctor and landowner, and Solomon Perteat, a prominent free, black craftsman who lived in Tuscaloosa prior to the Civil War.

The Game Plan

A discussion on historic preservation will begin the day, with a focus on masonry, cemeteries and gravestones.

We will take a short walk and talk tour, visually surveying some of the most historic gravestones and monuments that are in need of repair.

Cleaning demonstrations
Safe and effective removal of biological activity with D2 Biological Solution
Graffiti removal with Elephant Snot and a graffiti prevention discussion.

We will go review rust and lime calcium removal from irrigation staining as well.

Hands on!
After the cleaning demonstration, workshop participants are encouraged to adopt a gravestone and perform the cleaning process.
