DESCRIPTION:Service for family and close friends. 

What to Expect at a 
	Burial Service: 
	https://www.bluestemcemetery.org/attending_a_service.html

​PARKING & 
	GETTING AROUND
Please arrive 15-30 minutes before service start time. 
	When you arrive, staff or volunteers will direct you to a designated 
	parking area. Bluestem Road into the cemetery is only open to vehicles 
	for burial guests. In the nature preserve, the burial service site is 
	typically a significant walk (anywhere between 5-20 minutes) from the 
	parking area, on gravel and natural pathways. For those who require 
	mobility assistance, Bluestem staff or volunteers can provide a golf cart 
	ride. Please ask your group's point of contact to let Bluestem staff know 
	of mobility needs.

WHAT TO WEAR
Check the weather and dress 
	accordingly in clothes that will keep you comfortable outdoors. Wear 
	comfortable walking shoes or boots for uneven, natural terrain. We highly 
	recommend wearing a hat, and in the summer months, applying some bug 
	spray and sunscreen.

​WHAT TO BRING
Bluestem is a nature preserve 
	with little accommodations. There are two porta-potties on-site. There is 
	no air conditioning/heat or potable water. You may want to bring: a water 
	bottle, extra bug spray, a hat, sunscreen, extra layers, and a rain coat, 
	depending on weather. You are welcome to bring cut flowers or pick 
	wildflowers onsite to lay inside or on top of a grave. Small, paper notes 
	may be placed inside graves. Plantings, plastics, floral styling 
	materials, trinkets, mementos, or other non-biodegradable items are not 
	permitted.

PARTICIPATING IN BURIAL
A unique aspect of natural burial 
	is the opportunity for families and friends to participate in the 
	meaningful act of laying their loved one to rest. Bluestem staff and 
	volunteers will guide you and your guests in carrying the deceased from 
	the transport vehicle to the gravesite, lowering the deceased into the 
	grave, closing the grave, and covering the grave with pinestraw.
