Eco friendly funerals
 

Eco-friendly burials use coffins made from recycled materials, saving trees which would otherwise be felled in tropical rainforests. What is the point of burning precious timber in crematoria? Be part of something new after your death and in time new woodland will evolve, which will encourage wildlife.

"An eco-cemetery also known as a green burial ground, or a natural burial preserve, where the body is returned to the earth to decompose and recycle naturally, is an environmentally sustainable alternative to existing funeral practices." (from Wikipedia)

 At Greenhaven, burials are a celebration of life and of hope for the future


“Burial needn’t be horrible. You have proven it can be joyful. God bless you for it.” John Broadbent
