Lynn helping in Windward’s annual garden during a visit. Over the last 40 some years, Lynn has created an amazing permaculture garden oasis at her home in Yakima, WA!

I’ve always wanted to simply be buried in the ground, and here are some people who are making this simple burial possible.  I hadn’t put much thought or energy into how to make this simple burial happen, since I don’t expect to be dying soon, even though I am 70. I like so much the idea of a forest where I can be buried. In talking about the possibility, I realized that I don’t even want a headstone.

I don’t need to have my burial spot marked, just to be returned to the earth will satisfy me. I am impressed and grateful that Windward is doing the legal work necessary to make this cemetery happen.
