Pay-what-you-wish

Laurel Hill West, Conservatory

  • Join deathcare worker Nefertiti Moor to explore natural, eco-friendly, and culturally meaningful ways to return to the earth. In this workshop we’ll learn what green burial is, how it works, and how it ties directly into ancestral practices. We’ll break down the myths surrounding natural burial, review legal rights, discuss eco-conscious burial options like biodegradable caskets and shrouds, and explore how green burials and home funerals often go hand-in-hand. In a world where funeral costs are rising and environmental harm is a concern, green burial offers a way to honor both the earth and our legacies with dignity and care. Death is not just an ending; but a natural, sacred return to where we came from.
