"Of course the dead will continue to come, no matter what. But  
professionals in the field see this as a long outdated platitude. In  
Karlsruhe the customers of tomorrow are already being enticed today  
with attractive offers, like adopting a tree. Woodland burials allow  
the deceased to be buried under a selected oak or beech tree for 50  
years, with prices starting as low as €3,500."

Sounds to me like an ideal homestead business.

I have chosen a little grove of dogwood trees for my final composting  
effort.
