Our Vision
We hope to see a world where our blended soil is used in all public and private spaces where cremated remains are buried or scattered. We also desire it to be easily available for individuals to use at need.Our mission to make this a reality, is to provide education via online and printed information as well as advice and support to funeral professionals.
Giving Back
We take part in activities that promote improvements to our local community, for example litter picks. We also support Sherwood and Fluff, a local organisation working to reduce the feral cat population with compassion.Our support includes buying a set amount of cat food each month, and offering free professional services.e.g. Graphic design, marketing and business products.
Our Suppliers
We work hard to work with local suppliers where possible, and believe this is often preferable to a more ‘eco-friendly’ product from overseas. Where possible we source the most environmentally positive option. These decisions are based on availability, purchase numbers, speed of requirement and, of course, cost.Our blended soil is made in the UK from completely organic UK-sourced matter, and is completely peat-free.
Our staff are all paid a Living Wage.
Our packaging is either 100% home compostable, reusable, or recyclable.
Our brochures and leaflets are printed on either FSC-approved or recycled paper. We use a local independent business DW Printers for all our printed materials.
