Natural State Burial Association

Natural State Burial Association is a pioneering organization in Fayetteville, AR, dedicated to providing environmentally sound burial options through the establishment of natural cemeteries that conserve the natural landscape. Their vision is to create a peaceful and harmonious final resting place where individuals can be reunited with the earth in a simple and sustainable manner.

At Natural State Burial Association, they promote green burials that prohibit chemical embalming, grave-liners, and vaults, and instead encourage the use of biodegradable burial containers such as plain pine boxes, wicker or cardboard caskets, or fabric shrouds. With a commitment to restoring native vegetation and encouraging the presence of natural wildlife, they offer GPS coordinates and engraved flat native stone memorial markers to designate grave sites. By choosing this burial option, individuals can make a final statement of environmental responsibility and become part of the ongoing cycle of life.
