Free Presentation – What Is Green Burial?

June 30 @ 2:00 pm 3:30 pm

Free Informational Session – Learn about Natural Burial

Curious about green burial but don’t know what or who to ask? Join Lacey Reinhardt, BCA Event and Volunteer Coordinator, as she provides a closer look at green burial practices, dispels myths, and discusses new trends and options in death-care.

As a Licensed Funeral Director and Death Doula, Lacey will discuss the range of “green” funeral and cemetery options available today, like being laid to rest in a meadow, what one can expect when choosing a green service, and the environmental benefits of this natural burial option as compared to cremation and traditional burial.

This class will be held at the Hotchkiss Chapel at Bellefontaine Cemetery and Arboretum from 2:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. with a 1.5-hour presentation and a Q&A to follow. Enter the main gates of the Cemetery at 4947 W. Florissant Ave. then follow the street signs to the Hotchkiss Chapel.

Registration is required. Please sign up now!
