Welcome to the Green Burial Council, an organization dedicated to promoting environmentally-friendly burial practices. We offer a range of certified products, services, and green burial cemeteries, as well as valuable information about all things related to green burial. Green burial is a method of caring for the deceased that minimizes environmental impact.

It helps conserve natural resources, reduce carbon emissions, protect worker health, and support the restoration and preservation of habitat. Our mission is to provide more sustainable after-death options for individuals, communities, and the planet. Our certified cemetery stewards, funeral professionals, and product sellers have met rigorous qualification requirements.

This ensures that you receive goods and services that align with our organization's ethical aims. We also provide resources and materials to help you become a better advocate, start a green burial cemetery, or find the right services for your needs. Join us in our mission for a more environmentally-conscious approach to end-of-life decisions.
