Restoration Point Conservancy is a non-profit founded to care for cemeteries that time and circumstance have left behind. Across the country, thousands of historic burying grounds sit overgrown and forgotten: stones toppled, inscriptions fading, fences rusted through, and the families who once tended them long gone.
We bring these places back with patience and the right techniques. Working alongside municipalities, historical societies, and descendant families, we clear overgrowth by hand, reset and repair fallen markers, gently clean stone using conservation-safe methods, and document every grave we can read.
Our promise is simple: we never use methods that would harm the stone for the sake of a quick result. Restoration is slow, deliberate work — and it is meant to last for generations.
Our principles
Do no harm. We follow the conservation standards used by professional cemetery preservationists.
Honor the people. Every restoration is about the person remembered, not just the object.
Leave a record. What we document is shared so the names endure beyond the stone itself.
