Most people are familiar with the traditional burial and cremation practices, such as using a cemetery, or storing the ashes in an urn.   Some people choose to scatter their loved ones ashes but do not realise that this may be harmful to the environment.  

Mornington Green Legacy Gardens in Victoria are beautiful botanical gardens situated on the Mornington Peninsula.  

They offer an environmentally safe way for people to go back to nature after they die.  

The cremated ashes are scientifically treated to avoid causing any harm and are infused into a carefully chosen tree in their beautifully landscaped gardens or forests. 

The Legacy Gardens also offer future generations and loved ones a place to come and visit to watch as the tree grows and blossom.  It also provides a beautiful space in nature for families to gather, celebrate, and connect  

In this episode I chat with Luke Roberts, the co-founder of Mornington Green Legacy Gardens to hear more about this innovative practice
