  1. A green cemetery works in harmony with nature A grave replanted with indigenous flora and fauna A natural burial cemetery, also called a green cemetery, provides for the natural and unencumbered breakdown of the human body. It nourishes the earth and ensures a refuge for wildlife. A working green cemetery is a place where the public is encouraged to come and enjoy nature, hike its trails and hold life celebrations. When full, the green burial ground can be returned to the community after a predetermined expiration of grave rights to form a permanent park or green space. All photos are of South Carolina’s Ramsey Creek Preserve. Established in 1998, it was the first green burial cemetery in the United States. Ramsey Creek Preserve has 1,200 projected graves on its 32-acre site.
