What is human composting?
Human composting is an environmentally-friendly alternative to cremation and traditional burial. The process is sometimes referred to as body composting, natural organic reduction or soil transformation. Over a 45-day process, a body is gently transformed into nutrient-rich soil.
Families choose how much soil they’d like returned - to scatter or plant - and the remainder is sent to local conservation sites where it’s used for land restoration projects, such as reforestation and growing trees.
Human composting is for nature lovers, conservationists, and for those of us who want to protect the planet for future generations. Whether you need our services now, or you’re planning for the future, Earth is here to help New Mexico residents.

Unique final resting places
Each human composting process produces an approximate cubic yard of soil. Choose how much soil you’d like returned and send the remaining soil to local conservation projects for land restoration initiatives. Human composting is the most meaningful way to become a tree after death.

In thinking about what I want for my body after I die, I didn’t want it to be a chemicalized waste of space in an overpriced piece of real estate with a view. The idea of being turned into compost for my loved ones to grow something from my remains was a beautiful idea. Earth made enrolling in a prepayment plan very easy. They answered all of my questions and sent plenty of information to share with my loved ones. I highly recommend them for your green burial alternative to traditional burial practices.

This was the easiest decision I have ever made on a topic that is the hardest to discuss with family members. Earth - Green Funeral Home made the process simple, answered all my questions, and even accommodated an add-on service with ease and no complications. I love that this decision will be in the best interest of those I leave behind in taking care of our earth for future generations.
