National Green and Home Funeral Conference Success

The October 3 national conference was an overwhelming success. Practitioners and educators from all over the US attended to learn from each other and to network. A few open-minded funeral directors came to learn more and Char Barrett, licensed funeral director from Seattle, WA bridged the gap for us between the industry and the home funeral movement.

You can learn more about this amazing event that really galvanized the home and green funeral movement in the US by visiting http://www.naturaltransitions.org/naturaltranstions/Conference_09.html. There is a report of the presenters' sessions - Billy Campbell of Ramsey Creek Preserve conservation burial site, Beth Knox of Crossings, and more.
