About the Minnesota Death Collaborative

The Minnesota Death Collaborative (MNDC) is a group of integrative death professionals who serve the community in a variety of ways. They are end-of-life doulas, home funeral and vigil guides, celebrants, green burial advocates, energy and body workers, and much more. They work together to provide integrative death care opportunities to those who are dying, their families, and their support networks. Their goal is to educate and inform the public and professionals within the state of Minnesota, and to help those in need find appropriate services and resources. Learn more at mndeathcollaborative.org.

Driving Directions

Parking is available on any of the roads inside Lakewood’s gates unless otherwise noted with a no parking sign. Handicap parking will be available near the Chapel as well as the Welcome Center. Lakewood does not have an onsite parking lot – it is street parking only. This means you may have to park a short distance away and walk. We strongly encourage carpooling and public transportation.

Metro Transit lines 6 and 23 stop directly outside of Lakewood’s gates, a short walk to the Memorial Chapel and the Welcome Center.

Please lock bikes at the rack near the main entrance gates and walk to the Welcome Center. Do not lock bikes to trees or signs, leave bicycles unlocked on the grounds., or leave shared bikes or scooters overnight.
