Your gift helps us make green burial possible for everyone!
Bluestem's fields are flourishing and teeming with life now that the wildflowers and native grasses are planted. Milkweed, cosmos and coreopsis are popping with bees and butterflies. Visitors who have been on tours and families seeking green burial resources have contributed to our Building Bluestem campaign over the summer. Thank you, Strowd Roses, for your generous donation! Earlier this summer this private foundation in Chapel Hill, established to fund projects that improve quality of life, awarded Bluestem a $2000 grant. We appreciate their recognition of the impact that Bluestem can have on our community's quality of life. Every gift matters. When you support the Building Bluestem campaign, you help us make green burial possible for individuals and families in the region. Gifts may come in many forms:
Bluestem is a nonprofit 508(c)1(a) awaiting word from the IRS on our application for additional 501(c)3 status. Green Burial Project serves as Fiscal Sponsor for Bluestem Community NC, Inc., under a Fiscal Sponsorship Agreement effective February 8, 2022. EIN 813201267

"Green burial directly acknowledges that we die and our bodies decay... My wife and I are avid hikers, kayakers, gardeners and former farmers, so natural places and natural processes really speak to us. My body nourishing the earth and its creatures just makes sense. It is also a form of justice, as that same earth and those same creatures have nourished me, in one way or another, all my life." —JL Pledges and checks:
