Death, Natural Burial, Jewish Tradition: 11/18 7pm

Resh Mill Preserve 
Hello,
I am interested in learning more about this subject but I am not able to attend the event at Baltimore Hebrew Congregation (BHC) next Monday evening, 11/18.
I have been searching for green burial options because I don’t believe in the use of all the chemicals used for standard burials and I am not in favor of cremation. With this in mind, green burial makes the most sense to me. However, green burial options seem to be few in our area.
I live in Ellicott City, MD at this time, so, I’m thinking maybe the BHC cemetery might be an option for me because of the location.
I have a few questions I’m hoping can be answered via email, as follows:
1) I am not jewish. Do you have to be jewish to be buried in the BHC cemetery?
2) If you don’t have to be jewish to be buried there, what are their rules/requirements for a green burial?
3) What is the estimated cost for a green burial at the BHC cemetery?
4) Where can I obtain more information?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Sincerely,
Mimi Burch
