Welcome to Forest Rest Natural Cemetery

Interested in an eco friendly burial?  Forest Rest Natural Cemetery is simply beautiful woodland. It is the only place in southwest Virginia for a natural burial without embalming.

There is no need for expensive caskets—most people choose a shroud or favorite blanket, a bio-degradable pine box or wicker basket. If you want to keep it simple, choose Forest Rest and simply return to the earth.

Forest Rest Natural Cemetery is located adjacent to Mountain View Burial Park in Boones Mill, VA. It is the only natural cemetery between Lexington, VA and Raleigh, NC.

Forest Rest Natural Cemetery is happy to once again offer our beautiful locally made, live, mixed-fir Christmas wreaths. All wreaths have an outside dimension of 24” and are decorated with a red velvet bow, pinecones, and berries for $77.13 (sales tax included).

Wreaths are secured to a wire easel and placed on your loved one’s grave beginning the first week of December. All wreaths and Christmas arrangements are removed by our staff and discarded on February 1st.

Forest Rest Natural Cemetery does all the work for you—no worries about cold or snowy weather.

Our supplier promises our prettiest wreaths ever!
