Cayetano Natural Burial Ground at Tulocay

Cayetano Natural Burial Ground at Tulocay Established in 2015, Cayetano Natural Burial Ground offers green burial grave sites & services as part of Tulocay Cemetery in Napa, California.

History: Cayetano Natural Burial Ground (at Tulocay) was established in 2015 on approximately two acres of current day Tulocay Cemetery land, now designated for green burial. In 1836, Cayetano Juarez was given Rancho Tulucay, a two square league Mexican land grant located in present day Napa, California. Following the Mexican American War and the cession of California to the US, Cayetano retained ownership of the land and went on to donate just under 50 acres to the City of Napa to establish Tulocay (sic) Cemetery. Upon his death in 1883, Cayetano Juarez was buried at Tulocay on his originally donated land.
