A gentle, biodegradable cocoon to return your placenta to the earth with love, respect, and worldwide tradition.

The placenta is more than just a physical organ—it is the life-giving connection between mother and baby, a powerful symbol of nourishment, growth, and love. Around the world and across many cultures, burying the placenta is a meaningful tradition that honours this sacred bond and returns it to the earth in a way that reflects deep respect for life and lineage.

Our Placenta Cocoons are lovingly handcrafted using biodegradable, natural materials and are designed to hold a full-sized placenta, whether fresh or frozen. Whether you are marking the arrival of a new baby, connecting to cultural roots, or simply choosing an earth-conscious way to honour your journey, these cocoons provide a gentle, beautiful vessel for burial.

Each cocoon includes a biodegradable cornstarch bag to safely contain the placenta, a white outer bag for secure transport, a handcrafted outer wrap, a blessing to read during your ceremony, and a free packet of wildflower seeds to plant as a living tribute. Some families choose to bury the placenta beneath a tree or special plant, creating a lasting symbol of life, growth, and connection.

This simple yet powerful ritual can be a healing experience—celebrating the past, grounding you in the present, and planting hope for the future. If you're not sure where to begin or if you’ve kept your placenta in the freezer, please know you're not alone. I'm here to support you in making this moment as meaningful and personal as it deserves to be.

It is part of many cultures around the world - burying the placenta and then planting a tree on top - it’s a link between the past, the present and the future.

These cocoons are spacious enough to comfortably hold a full-sized placenta, whether fresh or frozen, and provide a gentle, biodegradable option for families wishing to return the placenta to the earth through burial.

Whether you're planting a tree in your backyard, honouring cultural traditions, or simply marking this incredible part of your birth journey, our placenta cocoons offer a beautiful and earth-friendly way to celebrate and let go. If your placenta has been frozen, it’s still perfectly suitable for burial and ceremony.

You will need your placenta cocoon about 4 weeks before your estimated due date (EDD), so it's on hand when your baby is born, your placenta will only last about 2-3 days before it needs to be buried or frozen.

Each cocoon comes with:

• A compostable, biodegradable inner pouch to hold the placenta

• Natural twine to secure the bundle

• A packet of Wildflower Seeds to scatter during the ceremony
