We are close to reaching the burial capacity of the current Baldwin Hill Conservation Cemetery and do not plan to expand at this time. 

In the future, we will focus our mission on encouraging other cemeteries, land trusts and organizations to consider adopting green burial practices. 

We will continue to provide information about Baldwin Hill and give tours to interested individuals and groups.

Welcome.

The Baldwin Hill Conservation Cemetery seeks to provide ecologically sound burial for people of all traditions and to serve as a model of green burial practices in Maine and beyond.


The 10-acre cemetery is located in Fayette, Maine, adjacent to The Kennebec Land Trust’s 80-acre Baldwin Hill Conservation Area. The cemetery intends to be a place where people can mark the end of a life in a meaningful way while surrounded by the beauty of the natural world. The cemetery opened for operations July 1, 2021.

The Baldwin Hill Conservation Cemetery was recently featured on the Maine Public Radio. Read the full story here.
