Want to Learn More about Green Burials?
Chuck Lakin, an experienced speaker on natural end-of-life alternative, will describe options for a "green burial", rethinking some of the assumptions about funerals. You and your family can save a considerable amount of damage to the environment and save money by opting for a green burial. Maine has very flexible laws with regard to burials. Unlike in some states, you do not need to be embalmed or cremated and embalming is not necessary to protect the public health. Come and hear Chuck and learn about how green burials can help our environment. Wednesday, October 4, 3:00 pm, West Parish Congregational Church. Free and open to the public.
