Featured in the Chicago Tribune: Here's how some Chicagoans are taking an eco-friendly approach to funerals

"About 60% of people are interested in exploring green funeral options, more than ever before." - David Struett Chicago Tribune


We’re excited to share an article from the Chicago Tribune that highlights the growing trend of green burials, featuring the Lithuanian National Cemetery and our commitment to offering sustainable options for honoring loved ones.


In this insightful piece, the Chicago Tribune delves into the environmental benefits of green burials, and we’re honored to have been included as a key example of how cemeteries are embracing this eco-friendly practice. Green burials allow families to choose a more natural and sustainable way to lay their loved ones to rest, with minimal environmental impact.


At the Lithuanian National Cemetery, we are proud to offer green burial options that reflect our dedication to preserving nature while also honoring the traditions and values of our community. As part of our mission to create a peaceful and meaningful space for remembrance, we provide families with an opportunity to choose a natural end of life option.


We invite you to read the full article to learn more about green burials and the role the Lithuanian National Cemetery is playing in this important movement.
