See why families choose Earth

It's the best natural option for returning the body to the earth and providing mulch for future plant life and human life. The other ways produce a unusable and toxic wasteland of valuable nutrients.

really agree with the goals of this funeral process; cost is reasonable and very easy to work with

Was a great company to work with from start to finish

They are very helpful with preplanning and transparent about their services. I have friends who are interested in human composting and I would recommend Earth to them.

We believe going green is the only way to save our planet. Staff have been responsive to our questions.

Excellent customer service

The concept of returning my body to soil pleases me. Signing up was easy; the staff are so helpful and friendly; and the cost is much less that traditional burial. My husband and I spoke with our 4 adult offspring prior to purchasing and they all were positive about our decision. Now they don’t have to deal with this after our deaths!

Earth guided us through the distress and logistics of my husband’s accidental death with grace and meaning. It has given us untold comfort to know that his remains will help generate life, and see the sun again.

This is a fantastic option

The process to sign up was very simple; the staff are extremely helpful and friendly; the concept is a great one. All good!

At a most difficult time, Earth took over the care of our daughter’s remains. They kept us apprised at appropriate points in the timeline, and the process was completed when promised. Thank you so much.

Good service, reasonably priced, kind-knowledgeable-not pushy customer service.

It is by far the best alternative for returning to dust and helping to save the planet for the living,

The ecological consequences are nearly eliminated And it seems more peaceful to me. Back into the cycle of life rather than be stuck in an urn or coffin

I have already had friends ask for more info about green burial, when I told them I was considering a decision to compost my body. I was very happy with your responsive guidance, and will be recommending your organization to whoever shows interest.

People are largely unaware that this eco-friendly alternative to burial and cremation is available in the US. I consider it an obligation to get the word out!

Recently decided to invest in this option as it seems to be a great alternative to traditional burial options. It was a very easy process to sign up for and the costs are comparable to the usual options. The bonus with this option is to be able to contribute to the sustainment of the environment. Why not? Better than sitting on a shelf in an urn collecting dust or wasting money on an expensive casket. Plus it will be easy for my loved ones to just pick up the phone and call a number to have everything taken care of. I highly recommend Earth Funeral

Each member of my family, and my late husband, totally believe in your mission, values, accessibility and future. Each one of you also handled our questions and our stress with grace, and in a timely way. Thank you.

I have always looked for a way to regenerate the earth with the energy left after I no longer need it. This is a way to live on in nature. Thank you

For me it is the perfect solution---and probably for others as well. Once I made contact I was given the information I needed.

It's a green way to handle one's remains, and Earth does that!

The first time I called, I was greeted with "This better not take too long. I have to pick my child at kindergarten in 15 minutes." The person then talked with me, but never sounded like he was interested in what I was asking him. I was then sent a lot of information about Earth and made the decision to use this service.

Easy process, friendly staff, answered all questions, affordable solution that is earth friendly

Novel concept, outstanding staff, competitively priced

Great alternative to the traditional way of getting rid of our shell when we die. Costs are reasonable and comparable. Easy to make arrangements

This was the perfect resting place for my daughter. She loved nature and did not want a conventional funeral. This fit our needs perfectly and Amelia was super. She followed up with me each step of the process which I really appreciated. Highly recommend Amelia and Earth Funeral.

Such a relief to have this option finally! The people at Earth have been nothing but kind, informative, understanding, gentle, and empathetic in our discussions about human composting. I am so happy to have found this company!

I would love to see more people be open up to a more eco-friendly burial service.

Straight forward and quick to respond

Soil transformation was the perfect choice for our father, a lifelong gardener and avid composter. From the moment we called to the day we picked up his soil, the Earth Team's communication and care were exceptional. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking an alternative to traditional burial or cremation. Thank you, Earth!

My daughter was very unconventional and lived nature. This is a perfect tribute to her and nature as well. Everyone was very helpful, respectful and professional. They followed up every step of the process and made a very difficult situation bearable.

Our entire experience with Earth Funeral was excellent. Once we decided on terramation instead of cremation or aquamation, Earth Funeral had the best price. We went to the facility to see it in person and everything about the experience was excellent. The pricing was honest and transparent, the staff knowledgeable, the facility nice, there were good internment options, and our money was handled in a trustworthy manner via routine insurance policies. We have already recommended Earth Funeral to 5 other close friends.

At last I’ve found the type of natural funeral services that fulfill my end-of-life preferences. And the people at EARTH couldn’t have been more professional, accessible, and helpful as I explored and finally selected my plan. I worked primarily with Sarah who was wonderful throughout, addressing all my questions and concerns with great sensitivity and expertise. Finalizing arrangements now for something I hope is still a ways off requires a leap of faith and a certain amount of trust. The folks at EARTH earned my trust, leaving me with greater peace of mind for myself and my loved ones.

It's the perfect way to handle remains.

Easy to work with, process for planning was simple

just think you are a good outfit doing good important work for a reasonable price

Everyone has been very helpful and as In was doing this on my phone, in Australia, I had more than my share of issues.

Honest and transparent pricing, knowledgeable staff, nice facility, good internment options, trustworthy handling of funds via insurance policies.

Natural burial/decomposition is seemingly more responsible and sensible than the tradtional funeral home/burial choice.

Earth provides a wonderful option and have been very easy to work with.

The process of transforming from remains to new life, to becoming part of growth, first drew me to Earth. Then the warmth, professionalism, courtesy, compassion and consideration shown by all of the people at Earth that I spoke swept me off my feet.

It’s green

From the first call To Earth Funeral to the soil delivery, the process was supportive and simple. During a time of grief, their care was a relief. I would highly recommend Earth Funeral for any family who cares about the environment and needs funeral services.

Earth provides a wonderful option and they have been very easy to work with.

My experience in signing with Earth Funeral for my end of life burial was very positive and easy. Sara, was knowledgeable, and sensitive to sharing all aspects of the process. I was totally surprised to learn my family could decide whether or not to keep some of my soil at the time of my death. I wasn’t pressured to make that decision right away. Earth is an amazing alternative to caskets and cremation. Thank you for generating this option.

Friendly and caring

I am in Portland OR, and contacted the Washington state facility. They arranged for a family viewing in Portland before moving him and helped me get the final soil distribution to several different locations.

My husband had spinal cancer, so we had time to research funeral options, prior to his passing. Since we both care about nature and the health of our planet, we chose Earth Funeral. Working with Amelia and Chris was wonderful. They are very helpful, supportive and professional. I have already purchased my Earth Funeral arrangements, even tho I expect to see many more sunrises! I volunteer with a 501c3 nonprofit to protect Legacy Forests in Western Washington. WLFDC.org

I had a very positive experience with Chris. He answers all my questions. I have now joined Earth.

I heard about this concept from my niece. I contacted Earth and found the facts. When you're gone, they pick your body up and prepare it with organic compounds. I was told it take about 7 months for the body to turn into compost. (But you don't have to worry, cause you won't be in it.) Then off to a location to be mixed with existing soil and rejuvenate the land! (Talk about getting your hands dirty!) I've always wanted to "return something to Mother Earth". This is the way to do it. We humans take and take from Earth. We leave nothing except scares and trash. (Also, a couple of ex-girlfriends thinks of me as dirt anyway, so this is only fitting.) [Joke]

I like the idea very much. It’s not an expensive plan and Kevin who I was in contact with was extremely helpful in answering all of my questions. I’m very happy with my decision

After researching this method it just seemed so much more natural and, I guess the word might be peaceful. It just really made sense to me for a lot of reasons besides being environmentally friendly.

I think this is a solution to so many obstacles in end of life situations. I am a naturalist and think going back to the Earth is the best way to travel full circle from birth to death. If I can nourish a river bank, a forest or a field of wild flowers I will die with purpose.

The principles behind your process and the excellent communication.

It's a great idea and I think a lot of folks would rather return something to Earth, rather than be buried in a tomb. I'm not a Pharo and at my age the only things that will find me appealing are bugs and such. So being buried in a casket someone can dig up in 200 years; I think what they find will be disappointing. And I like the idea of the 5 trees being planted. (I hope they're planted somewhere in the USA.)

Fair price for an ecologically sound process. I don't want to take up space after I'm gone. Returning to the earth is what's supposed to happen anyway.

You were very helpful in answering my many questions without undue pressure to commit to participation. I think I now have a good understanding of the approach of Earth and am happy to be a part of it.

When Chris (Taktak) closed Pisces, I had to restart my search. I needed an affordable, relatively local, environmentally conscious option - a personable and grounded connection would be a plus. Tall order, but I knew it was possible because I'd found it in Chris and Pisces. Proximity and price quickly winnowed my options. Online, Earth comes across online as forthright and without guile, which I find appealing. Recompose shares those same attributes but communicates a more relatable tone in their online presence. Finances directed me to follow up with Earth, not to mention the planned 2027 opening in California. Once I began interacting with staff, relationship needs sorted themselves. To cap it off, the arrival of Earth's welcome packet from sender Christopher Taktak affirmed I'd made the right choice for me! Staff was consistently helpful assisting my low-vision needs.

Earth friendly, simple and economical solution

Easy process to get quote and sign up. Closest of these types of businesses to where we live. Price comparable to market.

I like this earth friendly approach to death. It fits with my desire to leave no trace and to remain only in the memories of those whose lives I may have touched.

I like the concept of human composting and being more environmentally friendly. Earth quickly and easily assists in finalizing plans.

Like the concept and the people!
