About this event

Curious about green burial but don’t know what or who to ask? Join Lacey Reinhardt, Bellefontaine Cemetery’s 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. You will learn about 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 1.5 hour presentation, with a Q&A to follow, will be held in Hotchkiss Chapel at Bellefontaine Cemetery and Arboretum. Enter the main gates of the cemetery at 4947 W. Florissant Ave. then follow the street signs to the Hotchkiss Chapel. This class will be from 2:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Registration is required. Please sign up now!
