Some of the key principles of natural burials include no embalming, direct site burial where the shroud or sustainable coffin is put directly into the ground, land restoration and conservation, and simple memorialization. 

We are proud to use only the finest quality, all-natural biodegradable fibres (wool, cotton/linen, linen, etc.), right down to the cotton sewing thread, making our shrouds a perfect choice for green burials. 

Laws concerning transportation of the deceased, burial on one’s own land or the designation of green burial sites may vary from one province to province or state to state.
