Why should I choose green burial?

Green burial fosters a family and nature-centered approach to end-of-life care. Simplicity, affordability, and environmental sustainability are key features of a green burial service. A conservation burial goes a step further in allowing one’s body to return peacefully to the earth while surrounded by nature. When you choose conservation burial, you are choosing a living, natural, and lasting memorial.

Is green burial legal in Texas?

Yes. Natural burial is a time-honored tradition across our planet and within our state. Most conventional cemeteries require vaults, headstones, and caskets. Funeral homes often require embalming. State and county laws do not require these materials or processes. Green cemeteries simply provide the option of having a natural, simple burial.

My family has land – can I be buried on my own land in Texas?

Texas does permit family and community cemeteries on private land as long as they are under 10 acres in size and a certain distance outside any nearby municipalities based on population size. It is required to register your family cemetery plat with your local County Clerk’s office and keep records of each interment. Once a burial occurs within the designated grounds, that area is dedicated as a cemetery.

People we love die. When they do, we want to do something to honor them. Sometimes that means we bury our loved one. Sometimes that means we cremate or entomb the person. All those options are legal and available to Texans. Unfortunately, when someone we love dies, we are vulnerable. It is important to know your rights and what you should expect.

Am I required to get a container if I bury my loved one?
No. Texas does not require caskets or burial containers. However, the TFSC does not regulate cemeteries, and some cemeteries may require those things. But you should also know that if you purchase a casket or urn from someone other than the funeral facility, the facility must accept your container without any additional charge.

Quite a story to watch

Use this 5-step checklist if a loved one has passed away.

Before you pass away , remove your children as the beneficiaries for everything that you own. I know that sounds crazy , but you DONT want that.
If you want to pass down your assets to them after you pass away , then put all of the assets you own in a revocable trust , and then make your kids the beneficiaries of that trust.
When you go this route , your children can bypass what is called “the PROBATE period”. That process can be very long & ugly !
When you put your assets in a trust , your children have immediate access to the assets when you pass away. ALSO, you want to make sure to have a life insurance policy that covers your mortgage , so that when you pass away , your policy will pay off the mortgage and now your children will own the property out right !
