What kind of casket can I use for a natural burial?
Caskets that can be buried in a certified natural burial cemetery have strict compliance conditions.

🌿 Made from sustainably grown and harvested woods
🌿 No chemicals or artificial compounds used
🌿 Casket handles will be made of natural materials
🌿 Casket linings are to be of a bio-degradable material

If you have made your own casket we would need to get approval for its use.
