KORU Cremation | Burial | Ceremony’s Post

"What’s the difference between conventional burial and green burial? Conventional burial often: 🕊️ Takes place in a cemetery that requires the use of a wood or metal casket to enclose the deceased 🕊️ Involves embalming the deceased (even though it is not mandatory) 🕊️ Includes placing a grave liner or vault over the casket before the final burial 🕊️ Uses individual headstones to mark the grave Green burial has 5 essential principles: 🍃 No embalming, opting instead for natural body care only 🍃 Direct earth burial 🍃 Ecological restoration and conservation 🍃 Communal memorialization 🍃 Optimizing land use Green burial also takes place in cemeteries that have achieved an official green burial designation. A key component of this practice is to protect and preserve burial grounds, ensuring that the site will never be repurposed and that the ecosystem that evolves there will be protected 🌿 KORU is proud to be one of a select number of funeral homes that meet the criteria for providing green funeral service by the Green Burial Council." #deathcare #deathpositive #ecofriendly #womenled #local #vancouver #deathdoula #communitydeathcare #womenledbusiness #homedeath #deathpositive #smallbusinessbc #funeraldirector #localbusiness #futureoffuneral #greenburial
