natural burial grounds
Natural burial grounds are designated areas where individuals can be buried in a way that minimizes environmental impact. These sites often use biodegradable materials, such as wooden caskets or shrouds, allowing the body to decompose naturally. The focus is on preserving the landscape and promoting local flora and fauna.
In natural burial grounds, traditional grave markers are often replaced with natural elements like native plants or stones. This approach encourages a more sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to conventional cemeteries, aligning with the growing interest in green funerals and environmental conservation.
