What is natural burial?

Natural burial is a more sustainable alternative to traditional graveyard or cemetery. Instead of embalming, metal coffins or concrete vaults, biodegradable materials are used such as a cardboard coffin, wicker basket or shroud.

Natural burials are a simple, eco-friendly way of returning a body to the earth and suit people who want nature-centred goodbyes with minimal environmental impact.

They’re often positive and peaceful places to visit, surrounded by wildlife and nature.
