Summary
Lincoln, Vermont is poised to become the first town in the state to create a dedicated natural burial ground on its own land, honoring residents’ wishes to return to the earth without embalming chemicals or metal caskets. Inspired by a beloved local who couldn’t be buried naturally elsewhere, the town is tapping into its deep love for forests and rivers to offer an eco-friendly final resting place that nourishes the land. With potential sites already identified — one in a field, another in woods — the project faces hurdles like permits, access, parking, and funding, but community input will guide every step. As interest grows among an aging population, Lincoln’s bold move reflects a broader shift toward meaningful, environmentally conscious end-of-life choices.
