And for those seeking information for educational purposes or with an imminent need in mind, here's a primer: There are basically three choices for after-death care:
Professional mortuary services
Family and community-assisted care
An integration of both

Enlisting the help of a mortuary service will be a great comfort to those who want natural burial but are not prepared to carry out home land burials without assistance. For those who are prepared to go that DIY route, as a trained home funeral and natural burial guide, I can support you through the journey.
