A Path Home
What is a home funeral? How can I have a green burial? Do I have to hire a Funeral Director? On this podcast we’ll be focusing on reclaiming our innate right to care for our own loved ones at death in natural, and often, environmentally friendly ways. We’ll demystify the tasks related to after death care through hearing stories from people who have ventured into culturally unfamiliar territory and cared for their own deceased loved ones at home, chose a natural burial or both. Hearing what’s possible and how lives have been transformed by engaging in this final act of love is one path towards changing our culture and our relationship to death. A Path Home is a production of the National Home Funeral Alliance.

Margaret stepped into participating in the after-death care for two community members and her own father after learning it was possible through attending a Death Cafe in her community. Margaret's story illustrates the varying forms home funeral practice can take. It may involve collaborating with funeral professionals in your community. It may not even happen at home.
