GREEN BURIAL WHAT IS IT?
Green burial, also known as Natural burial or Woodland burial is a rapidly growing alternative funeral choice to cremation, with over 270 sites being developed nationwide since 1994.
NATURAL BURIAL:
- PROVIDES A MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY BURIAL OPTION THAN CREMATION- which creates air pollution whilst using up precious fossil fuels.
- Welcomes followers of all religions or none. As well as those seeking a spiritual alternative
- Allows greater choice and participation for family and friends. Helping those involved come to terms with the grieving process more fully.
- They are an alternative to 'production line' funerals and encourage a wider choice of ceremony
- Designed to blend in with the surroundings and so alleviate any grave maintenance.
- AS NATURE INTENDED - NO HEADSTONES, WREATHS OR PLASTIC FLOWERS
