This option may be ideal for those who valued sustainability or had a deep connection to nature.
Common elements of green burial include:
- Biodegradable caskets or shrouds
- No embalming chemicals
- Burial in natural or designated green spaces
Green burial offers a thoughtful way to reflect a life lived in harmony with the earth.
