    Why California Needs a Conservation Cemetery

    Online

    🌿 Our Bodies Are Designed to Return to the Earth 🌿 Join our Zoom to learn what a Conservation Cemetery is… permanently protected natural land where burials restore habitat.

    Author Conversation: Too Poor to Die

    Online

    Please join us on Tuesday, Sep 30th, 2025 at 4:00pm PDT for a conversation between author, Amy Shea and death doula and educator, Lauren Seeley to discuss of Amy’s new book, Too Poor to Die: The Hidden Realities of Dying in the Margins.
