Cemetery Guidelines: an NPS Community Conversation
November 18 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm
The Natural Path Sanctuary promotes a legacy of care and respect for the earth through choosing a natural burial. We recognize that death is not always easy to accept, whether anticipated or unanticipated, and all involved with the Natural Path Sanctuary believe that there is healing in the practice of a natural-life sustaining burial.
Natural Path Sanctuary is committed to family and community friendly burials with as minimal of an impact on the environment as possible. It is our desire to preserve the natural beauty of the land in life and in death.
Topics of discussion:
- Embalming
- Outer burial containers and liners
- Biodegradable containers and coverings
- Cremation Remains
- Grave Markers
- Planting of Flowers, plants, shrubs and trees
- Floral Tributes and Decorations
- Size of Memorial gathering
Our rules are based on our desire that people buried here will be a part of the natural path of life and death, buried amongst the trees and the plants.
