We’re excited to report that our Board of Directors recently granted approval for the Land Trust to move forward in creating a conservation burial program.
For a number of years, we’ve been investigating the potential for creating a conservation burial program here in Jefferson County. A working committee made up of board members, volunteers, and staff members has been researching and analyzing various aspects of conservation burial models and seeking community feedback to gauge interest.
Wildland cemeteries and memorial forests are places where family and friends can go to honor and remember a loved one in a natural setting. Over time, we plan to incorporate both of these models in our conservation burial program.
