Details:

The Linda and Gene Farley Center for Peace, Justice, and Sustainability is located on 43 acres of rolling hills in the Town of Springdale just outside of Verona, Wisconsin. It is dedicated to making the world a better place while respecting the natural world. Its major source of revenue is natural burial in its Natural Path Sanctuary . That enables the foundation to support local farmers and artisans and its expansive educational activities, including everything from beekeeping to juvenile corrections.

The center’s director, Shedd Farley, will explain the philosophy and practice behind natural burial as well as the history of how the center came to be.

The Atheist Lounge will host this presentation on, as usual, the last Thursday of the month. Order food and drink at 7 PM, with short presentation starting about 30-45 minutes thereafter, and plenty of open discussion after that.
