LEARN MORENatural burial grounds
These days, more than ever, we have to be aware of the impact we have on the planet in everything we do – including dying. Traditional burials can have significantly negative consequences for the environment, as a result of non-biodegradable and toxic materials being used in the manufacture of coffins, or the damaging chemicals involved in processes such as embalming.
At Tithe Green, we believe in giving back to the earth instead at our eco-friendly burial space. We've been operating our natural burial site for over 30 years, making us one of the first and oldest green burial companies in the UK. We’re a family-run business that believes in offering a positive and uplifting alternative to traditional funerals that is both completely environmentally-friendly and cost-effective.
We were voted Best Burial Ground in the UK in 2018.
What are natural burial grounds?
A natural burial with Tithe Green is like no other burial.
We have over 70 acres of beautiful, natural burial grounds, incorporating both a wildflower meadow and a woodland burial site situated in Oxton, Nottinghamshire, and in Ketton, Rutland, making them easily accessible for those in and around Nottingham, Leicester and Peterborough.
Suitable for both burials and ashes interments, they also act as a place for trees and wildflowers to grow and flourish, where all kinds of wildlife can live and prosper and where people can visit to reflect, explore and connect with nature all year in a place of quiet and tranquil beauty.
Environmentally-friendly funeral options
It’s not just the materials and processes involved in the actual funeral that make our service such an eco-friendly option.
By locating our burial plots and ashes plots in wildflower meadows and woodland, we’re also making a positive contribution to the local environment by planting memorial trees or wildflowers that will attract wildlife, support biodiversity and help our declining bee populations. Not only does this create a beautiful space, but it means you or your loved one will live on through nature.
If you’d like more information about our natural burial grounds, or you would like to discuss all your options at Tithe Green, please give us a call. Otherwise, you can book your green burial online now.
