In this entertaining and interactive workshop, Professor Chris Palmer will explain why talking with your family about your funeral preferences is essential, why comparison shopping can save you significant money, and how eco-friendly options at the end of life (like green burial, water cremation, and human composting) present new opportunities. Chris will also cover related topics, including embalming, home funerals, and death doulas.

This event is a collaboration between BMAV, Little Falls Village, and Friendship Heights Neighbors Network. Join Zoom Meeting, https://us06web.zoom.us/j/82494115858Meeting ID 824 9411 5858
