Eco Friendly Cardboard Coffins

When a arranging a funeral for a close relative or friend, or just making funeral plans for the future, the thought of spending a significant sum on a traditional coffin may seem to be at odds with ‘the way they lived their life’ or to be incompatible with the environmental ethics that they tried to uphold.

A Cardboard Coffin may be the ideal solution to the problem and can be bought for use in Woodland cemeteries, Green burials, environmentally friendly funerals, or for an alternative funeral where an individual request may include a painted coffin. And, they can be purchased online . . .

Eternal Reefs . . . Dust to Dust, Ashes to Water . . .


Eternal Reefs, Inc. creates permanent living legacies that memorialize the passing of a loved one. For families and individuals that choose cremation, Eternal Reefs offers a new memorial choice that replaces cremation urns and ash scattering with a permanent environmental living legacy.Families and friends are invited and encouraged to participate in the creation of their loved ones memorial reef. From placing your handprint in the damp concrete during the casting, making a rubbing of the bronze plaque during the viewing ceremony or placing a flag on your loved ones memorial reef during our military honors ceremony, all Eternal Reefs activities provide peace of mind for everyone involved.

As one of our family members stated, "I didn't know what to expect when burying my mother in an Eternal Reef, but the process has given me such closure. Her grandchildren helped create her memorial reef, we all took photos with her reef and wrote personal messages, some of her childhood friends even attended the dedication ceremony. She loved the ocean and now we have a place to visit her. Way to go Mom!"
