Monday, November 20th, 6PM: [Zoom] A Public Discussion on Green Burials

Green burial is a way of caring for the dead with minimal environmental impact that conserves natural resources, reduces carbon emissions, protects worker health, and restores and/or preserves natural habitat. Green burials are gaining traction in Vermont. Rather than being embalmed with chemicals or buried in concrete vault liners, the deceased are laid to rest in biodegradable materials. Could green burial be an option in Windsor cemeteries?

Presenters : Lee Webster, Director of the NH Funeral Resources, Education & Advocacy, Jeff Knight from Knight's Funeral Home in Windsor, and Michael Mayer of Higher Ground Conservation Burial.
