Natural/Green Burials brought to you by Smith's Funeral Home
In this session we will learn how to offer greener products to families in a prearrangement or at need situation. We will also learn what Natural Burial can look like through photos of actual services I have arranged. We will discuss what the future might look like and how funeral homes and funeral staff can be leading in education on options available to families. You will learn how to "think outside the box" when it comes to services for our families.
