Green Burial Workshop
Thursday, November 21st – 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.
Holton Hall, 130 Austine Dr. Brattleboro

Lee Webster, noted author and national leader in the field of Green Burial will present the current status of green burial in Vermont. More and more people are asking for environmentally responsible burial options that reflect their personal values. The practice of burying bodies without embalming with toxic chemicals, encasing in metal or rainforest wood caskets, or cement or plastic outer vaults—truly body to earth—is timeless, interrupted only over the past century. This workshop will show how efforts to return to these ancient, eco-friendly ways are gaining momentum across the country as people are finding a way to let their bodies return to the earth.

This program is sponsored by Windham Regional Woodlands Association and is open to all. Additional information available at windhamwoodlands.org
