Larkspur Conservation

Mission Statement

Through teaching and practice, Larkspur Conservation promotes natural burial by creating nature preserves where mindful natural burial can occur. We strive to be environmental stewards of creation by preserving and restoring the habitats we have been given, and by reducing burial activities that damage our natural home. Our nature preserves allow for the practice of rituals that honor the mystery and power we encounter in death, provide green space for the public to enjoy and serve as a platform to protect and conserve endangered land. Larkspur Conservation serves the whole community.
