Name: BLL: Green Burial
Date: May 14, 2024
Time: 5:30 PM - 6:30 PM EDT
Event Description:
Green burial is an ecologically friendly way of returning bodies to the earth after death. A green or natural burial uses no embalming, no metal casket, and no burial liner or vault. Because only biodegradable materials are used, in green burial a human body and its burial container enrich the soil. While many cemeteries do not yet allow green burial, green burials are allowed in Area C of Brewster Memorial Cemetery. Join Sophia Sayigh, a Brewster Cemetery Commissioner and a volunteer board member of Green Burial Massachusetts for a presentation about green burial followed by time for questions and answers.
