Der Ablauf einer Forest burial

The process of a forest burial

Preparation and transfer:
After the loss of a relative, we take care of the careful preparation and transfer to the chosen forest rest site. We will help you choose the appropriate tree to serve as a natural tombstone.

The funeral:
The burial takes place in a quiet, respectful ceremony in which the biodegradable urn is buried in the root area of a tree. This tree will become a living memorial to the deceased and a place where loved ones can return.

Keepsake maintenance:
We ensure that the natural environment is maintained and that the peace of the forest is maintained. The dignity of the place and the memory of loved ones remains unaffected by the hustle and bustle of the modern world.

Benefits of forest burial:

  • Environmental friendliness: No use of chemical preservatives or metal coffins
  • Harmony with nature: Offers a final resting place that is in harmony with the natural environment.
  • Sustainability: Supports the conservation of forest areas and promotes local flora and fauna.
