Learn what it means to choose a Green Burial,
and to be more creatively involved in caring for a loved one after death.

We will explore:
How to work proactively with funeral homes
Honoring and caring for a deceased loved one’s body at home or hospital
Creating Advance and After-Death-Care Directives

Lucinda says that to bring beauty, nature, art, and ritual – even celebration and joy
- in the midst of mourning -
is to “green” the gateway of death with life and renewal.
As a home funeral and Green Burial guide, interfaith celebrant,
and green licensed funeral director, she is also the author of
