Green Burial

Making plans for the end of life can be an emotional topic with many factors to consider. While traditional casket burials or cremation are familiar choices, there is now a more sustainable option available in Frederick County called green or natural burial.
Hosted at the C. Burr Artz Public Library - 110 East Patrick Street
Frederick, MD 21701
Bring your questions and concerns.
There will be plenty of time for discussion. All are welcome.
