When we were researching this some years ago, we were told that a body could be buried in a garden, as long as it was in a hole 6 feet deep and more than 20 feet from a 'water course' and 30 feet from any boundary fences - it would need to be marked with a stone and the position added to the house deeds in the event that the property was sold.
I'm thinking of joining the worms in our septic tank!
Great idea. Although, would the ground want my body? 😀
I would be very happy with a natural burial too. (after I'd died of course) :p
Just pecked at by the crows, munched on by the foxes, then my skeleton turning into bone meal for the trees
I too have asked for a woodland burial with just a rock or tree to mark where I am. I think it is a wonderful idea for the family to have somewhere to come, maybe have a picnic and enjoy the peace and connection with the Earth, rather than worry about the upkeep of a grave etc.
When I first mentioned this to my husband a few years ago he said that he hoped the cardboard box had strong enough brown tape as he hated the thought of my backside falling through when the box was lifted lol!!!
Love and light

My warped sense of humour I would love someone to print on the box as if it was going through the royal mail!!.
