NORTH AMERICAN NATURAL FUNERAL SERVICE PROVIDERS' LIST

Contact us for a referral to the closest natural funeral service provider near you that has said they offer environmentally-friendly options. Natural Burial Company resellers are listed below, by region.

Our displaying resellers often carry one or more of our woven coffins in stock and any funeral service provider can special-order items from us on your behalf,

We will sell retail if:

1) you are sure of what you want (no returns on coffins),
2) you are planning a home funeral and are NOT working with a funeral service guide or professional (in which case, let them help you), and
3) you can take delivery at your home (or you have a funeral director to receive). 

Visit our "How to Buy" page for more information on purchasing.

No matter what, PLEASE remember to pre-plan with a funeral service provider and/or fully inform family members of your wishes. You can learn more about options for natural funerals and burial at http://www.beatree.com (Be a Tree, the Natural Burial Guide for Turning Yourself into a Forest.")

"Going green means taking a new ecologically friendly approach to death and funerals. While there are few “green” cemeteries in the U.S., we can still recommend ways to have less of an impact on our environment where funerals are concerned. Some options are biodegradable caskets, urns, preservation without embalming, and even avoiding steel and concrete tombs altogether. For us, it also means using “green” and eco-friendly cleaning products for our disinfecting and sanitizing procedures."
