We will learn what eco burial options are available at Maple Grove Cemetery (Queens, NYC) and we will explore our philosophical connections to nature through life and death. Each topic will be interwoven with a live musical offering and reflection. This program is sponsored by the Human Impacts Institute and the Friends of Maple Grove. Dedicated to the families of those laid to rest at Maple Grove over the past 150 years. They carry the love, the memories and the music in their hearts.
