St. Luke’s cemetery in bloom
In May and June, St. Luke’s cemetery is a sea of orange and yellow when the California poppies are in full bloom.
We held a community cemetery cleanup on Wednesday, May 13 and will hold our next cleanup on Saturday, June 13 from 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Everyone welcome. Many hands make light work! It takes a community to help maintain a cemetery.
