Green burial, or natural burial, is growing in popularity and becoming the preferred option for many families in Alachua County. It uses no chemicals, no non-biodegradable substances, and does not require purchase of a grave vault or liner. Green burial takes us back to the natural human funeral rite of simply placing a loved one in the ground. It fulfills the last wishes of any nature-lover and allows the family to participate in the process. Milam Funeral & Cremation Services will work closely with Prairie Creek Conservation Cemetery to create this memorable and serene experience.
Please view Prairie Creek’s website for more information: www.prairiecreekconservationcemetery.org
