Services
Interra Green Burial operates through two Mueller Memorial facilities. The St. Paul location at 835 Johnson Parkway Suite B serves as the primary green burial hub for urban families. The White Bear Lake location at 4738 Bald Eagle Avenue extends access to northern metro communities. Both locations provide consultation spaces for arranging services and coordinating with green cemeteries throughout the region. Specific chapel capacities and visitation room counts are not detailed on the website.
Interra structures services around the principle that end-of-life arrangements can reflect the ecological values maintained during life. Their offerings bypass conventional funeral infrastructure—embalming chemicals, metal caskets, concrete vaults, and fossil-fuel-dependent cremation—in favor of processes that accelerate natural decomposition or eliminate combustion entirely.
Interra Green Burial operates as a signature service of Mueller Memorial, a funeral home with more than 75 years of history serving the Twin Cities metro area. In February 2023, Interra became the first funeral service provider in Minnesota and Western Wisconsin to earn certification from the national Green Burial Council—a distinction that recognized their specialized focus on low-impact final disposition options at a time when no other state provider held this credential.
The operation spans two locations: a St. Paul facility at 835 Johnson Parkway and a White Bear Lake location at 4738 Bald Eagle Avenue. Both sites deliver services designed to minimize or eliminate the resource consumption typically associated with conventional funeral practices. Interra's model emerged from a recognition that traditional funeral homes had consolidated around two high-impact options—flame cremation and embalmed casket burial—leaving environmentally conscious families without accessible alternatives.
The service team includes licensed funeral directors Mary, Mandy, Nicole, Nichole, and Scott, who handle arrangements in person, by phone, or through an online planning portal. Phone coverage operates 24 hours for immediate needs.

The funeral directors have a true passion and great knowledge of natural burials.
