Woodland Farewells

Have you considered a woodland burial?

 

Local to me, Stone Cemetery in Staffordshire offers a serene woodland burial site, an increasingly popular and meaningful choice for those seeking a natural farewell. Nestled within Staffordshire’s countryside, this tranquil space allows for burials and ashes scattering in harmony with nature.

​

What makes Stone Cemetery unique is its commitment to sustainability and remembrance, after each interment, a native tree is planted, species beech, oak and lime can be chosen, all of which are suitable for the local soil and climate. These trees not only mark the resting place but also contribute to the woodland’s growth, creating a living legacy that families can revisit and cherish.

​

Whether you're drawn to the peaceful surroundings, the ecological benefits, or the symbolism of new life through tree planting, woodland burials offer a gentle alternative to traditional services, one that honours both the individual and the environment.
