We supply earth urns that are designed to fully biodegrade along with the ashes, which are contained in a water-soluble bag to ensure that everything within the urn is fully biodegradable.
Ideally these types of urns need to be buried deeply to reduce the risk of alkalinity of the ashes affected the growth of plants directly around it. UK law permits the burial of ashes on land that you own, but if you rent your property you will require permission from the land owner. In addition to this, there are areas of ecological sensitivity where ashes should not be scattered or buried, so it’s best to check this out in advance before you dig any big holes.
