Product Description

Conventionally grown cotton uses more pesticides than any other agricultural crop. We only sell certified organic cotton.

Our 100% organic unbleached cotton shrouds are the Natural Burial Company's simplest natural burial option. Handmade in Oregon, each regular-sized shroud has approximately 5+ yards of 60" wide fabric and provides ample material for a full body wrap. All shrouds are double-hemmed for a clean, finished look.  Three handsewn cotton straps tie the shroud into place. Instructions included. 

Sizing: A 5+ yard shroud will provide double wrapping for persons of average height. Taller persons can have single wrap OR purchase additional lengths. Extra-long adds 30" of length. Extra-wide shroud adds 30" of width.
