Natural Burial Featured in Toronto Star
The Toronto Star is running an article on natural burial today by Nancy J. White, life writer for the newspaper. The article features interviews from two Natural Burial Co-operative co-founders, Michael Salisbury and Michael Driscoll as well as other members of the natural burial movement in North America.”It’s a way to finance environmental restoration of land, to make sure a Wal-Mart never grows on the old family farm,” says Salisbury, 40, a landscape architect and Guelph city councillor. One of the founders of the co-op, Driscoll, 51, is helping the group plan a line of benign burial products “pine boxes without toxic glues, baskets by Maritime weavers” for members. “No one will get rich on this,” he says.”
