Cost & Pricing
What Does Natural Burial Cost?
Finances are the deciding factor for many people when it comes to end of life choices. We believe cost shouldn’t get in the way of a family having the opportunity to develop their own healing rituals around death.
Burial rights at Larkspur include everything someone needs for a natural burial, so comparing costs is as easy as possible. Some optional items like native stone memorials and shrouds are available, but they are not necessary for a natural burial at Larkspur Conservation. If you have questions about prices or about how to plan ahead for a natural burial, please send us a message.
If you have experienced a loss and want a natural burial for your loved one, but it feels out of reach financially, please contact us. As a nonprofit, we may be able to help.
