Cost / Value
It’s far more than just saving money…
In addition to the ecological and emotional benefits, green burials can often be friendlier to the pocketbook.
What makes a natural burial different from a financial perspective is that the costs are better allocated, with money carrying on the legacy of the deceased by protecting green space instead of going towards the mark-up on expensive, unnecessary consumption.
In more ways than one, a natural burial can be a much more personal goodbye than we as a society might be used to. Families often take part in burying their dead or lowering them into the grave. Nothing throughout the process is considered hands-off or unorthodox.
Natural burial is simply a natural, beautiful expression of letting go, helping friends and family move from grief and darkness to celebration.
