Natural Burial New Hampshire

Natural burial sequesters carbon, nourishes the soil, and provides a means of conserving land for centuries to come. Being part of a community that works in tandem to create natural burial opportunities throughout the state is a powerful way to make your environmental advocacy impact. We raise funds for educational programming, land acquisition, and charitable giving, making natural burial accessible and affordable for everyone.

Natural Burial NH seeks to fund and support independent nonprofit green burial grounds in the state in places where people have created a strong sense of place during their lifetimes. Our goal is to grow a community of New Hampshirites who understand and support natural burial so they can make educated decisions that impact their families, friends, and our state's environmental and economic health. 

Creating independent burial spaces can be complex and expensive. Our goal is to provide a larger framework and funding pool for potential cemetery nonprofits and to educate the public about why natural burial is important to each of us.

We pledge to:

• Provide educational resources to the general public about natural and conservation burial practices.
• Support best practices and understanding of conservation and natural burial to New Hampshire land trusts.
• Help fund the formation of independent nonprofit natural and conservation burial grounds in New Hampshire.
• Foster charitable service programming for individuals and groups in independent burial grounds.
