Hi Fern,



I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. 



Regarding eco coffins, I have done a quick google on eco coffins, and
found the following organisations:



http://www.onearth.com.au/ 



They seem to be based South Australia but apparently you can ask your
funeral director to order a casket from them.



These people are in NSW:

and



http://www.earthbeds.com.au/



I hope this is helpful, and want to thank you for making this sensitive
enquiry public on the list, as it has alerted me to the availability of
eco coffins in Australia, and this is important to me.



Best wishes to you and your family,



Kerry Dawborn

Robyn, I stayed with my dad & I am so grateful that I did.  
Yesterday & last night were very precious moments.  Dad's condition  
deteriorated rapidly and he passed away at 3pm today.

Robyn, I would be very grateful if you know of the details of  
ecocoffins.  There was a seminar on ecofunerals/coffins at a PN  
event last year.  I think it was posted on the listserv.  I know  
you're so busy, but I hope u can help.  Mum said that dad would  
like an ecocoffin. We have to inform the hospital of the funeral  
arrangements tomorrow.  I'm so tired
If u cannot help, plz post this on the listserv  for me.
Love
Fern
