Green Burials Devon and Cornwall

Environmentally Friendly Burials

As well as traditional religious burials in a churchyard or cemetery, we can arrange for a woodland burial. Woodland burials are increasingly popular and we have strong connections with the growing number of sites in the Cornwall and Devon.

They offer an ecological alternative to traditional burials and are less expensive. The land is managed with the environment in mind and the land is reverted back to woodland or meadows. Instead of a traditional headstone, a tree is planted with a plaque and environmentally friendly coffins made from materials such as bamboo, wicker or cardboard are used. The body is not embalmed with harmful chemicals.

We can also arrange for burials on private land.
