Get Involved    

Conservation burial projects depend on community support and participation. There is fundraising necessary, outreach to make, trails to build, fields to seed, and eventually opportunities for accompanying friends and neighbors in burial rituals and ceremony. 

As
Bluestem comes into being, we invite you to sign up for the newsletter, volunteer for trail work days, or make a donation to support equipment needed for Bluestem's opening this summer. Be sure to read up on Building Bluestem!
