During their December 21, 2020 Regular Board of Granville Township Trustees meeting, the Board voted to allow Natural burials.
Below is the language added to the Maple Grove Cemetery – Rules and Regulations document for Natural burials:
Natural burials are permitted within all sections of the cemetery. A natural burial is
one where an embalming process is not utilized and interment is without a standard
casket or burial vault. A biodegradable wicker casket/pod or similar item is required
for burial so that direct handling of the human remains by cemetery personnel is
avoided.
Attached is the full set of updated rules:
