These are proposed burial pods

        

Instead of being buried in a coffin; a body is placed into a biodegradable pod, and placed beneath a tree

        

Instead of a cemetery, a memorial forest is built (grown)

        

Forests will be grown with a variety of trees, and attract wildlife

        

Trees would take nutrients from the biodegrading pod for years to come
