Green Funerals/Burials
Programs that provide funerals and/or burial services that incorporate environmentally-friendly options at the request of families wanting a green service. Elements of a green funeral/burial may include a small gathering in a natural setting; use of recycled paper products; locally-grown organic flowers; carpooling; organic food; avoidance of embalming or embalming with formaldehyde-free products; use of sustainable biodegradable clothing, shrouds and caskets; and burial, often in a natural setting with flat rocks, plants or trees as grave markers in lieu of traditional standing stones.
