Caring for the environment doesn’t have to stop at the end of life. Green funerals offer families a meaningful way to honour their loved one while also protecting the planet. At Greenhaven Funerals, we help Melbourne families create ecofriendly farewells that reflect personal values and tread lightly on the earth.
Choosing a green funeral means making conscious decisions across every part of the service. From the coffin to the burial site, each choice can support sustainability. We offer biodegradable coffins made from natural materials such as wicker or sustainably sourced timber. These break down gently over time, without harming the surrounding soil or wildlife.
Green burials in Melbourne
We also work with natural burial grounds throughout Melbourne, where graves are set among trees and native vegetation instead of manicured lawns and headstones. These spaces are free from pesticides, concrete vaults or heavy machinery, allowing nature to remain undisturbed.
Families choosing an ecofriendly funeral are often looking for something simple, honest and connected to the land. Whether it’s a private outdoor service, a bushland burial or simply avoiding synthetic materials, we’re here to guide you through the options and help you plan a farewell that’s both gentle and genuine.
