Green Burials
Why should you become a tree?
Keep giving life (oxygen) to the earth long after they are gone. It is a much cheaper alternative than using a traditional burial. There are 93 cemeteries across the country support and allow this practice.

The average funeral in the United States costs $5,000. In comparison to a green cemetery, the cost for a green burial is much lower. For example, a tree cemetery plot in Maine costs $800, or $1200 per couple, with pet burials at no extra charge. For those who prefer cremation, there is a simpler and perhaps cheaper way to become a tree after death. BiosUrn sells urns that mix soil and a tree seed in with a person’s ashes and is 100 percent biodegradable and easy to plant for approximately $125 depending on which tree you prefer to become.
