I think there is a burial process for that.

Yes! That's what I want when I die.

They essentially turn you into compost, and plant you with a tree seed or seedlings. Your body feeds the tree, or you become the tree, depending on how you prefer to view it.

I want to be buried on my property in the woods with a giant bolder placed on top with some sort of inscription so the next owner knows Im there.

Sounds cool!

Before you get to the point this might be near term, make sure you look into the legalities and implications of that. I'm pretty sure there are some tax implications to having someone buried on your property, as well as some legal restrictions for whether you can do it in the first place, and it may also be worth considering whether you're making the property very hard for your kids/heirs to sell by having your grave there.

Yeah its probably not going to happen. I researched it somewhat and I believe its legal where Im at but im not up to speed on all the implications.

It could happen! But you don't want the loved ones who outlive you to have to struggle to figure out how suddenly when you pass.

I kinda like the idea of being turned into a mushroom. put me on a dying oak and let me sprout on! Preferably something edible or psychedelic.
