See why families choose Earth

Your staff was very accessible and knowledgeable, and your service package seems quite comprehensive and flexible.

Appreciate the communication about the process and during the process. Also, very willing to answer any questions. Great follow up. Thank you for being an alternative to cremation and burial.

It’s the very best way to deal with a situation often left for those people who may be grieving. A kindness to them as well as for our suffering planet.

During this hard time. The staff at Earth were very kind and friendly. If myself or family had any questions they were easy to reach out to. They are an amazing team ❤️

There was no hard sell or “nickel and dime”ing. The people were always friendly, conscious of my feelings and above helpful from first contact to pick up.

It’s a peaceful transition rather than being burned. Can’t say really looking forward to it but it’s the way to go

It is more natural considering the alternatives, less polluting and not requiring some godawful monument or waste of space.

Friendly and professional staff. Laughed at jokes to make the topic a bit more comfortable/manageable. Already told friends and family about our plans and have recommended earth.

Warm friendly people. Nice final resting place.

Nicole was so flexible, friendly and easy to work with!! I'm so excited to have this option for the deposition of my remains and to be able to ease the burden of this decision making on my family when I die.

My youngest son recently died from ALS. He was an herbalist and a lover of Mother Earth and all green growth. EarthFuneral was the perfect place for Jon who has now come home to nourish his dear plants. Thank you all at Earth for your gracious loving care of my son.

We are happy with earthfuneral.com ’s compassionate, professional service. They treated our family like we mattered.

It is my opinion that Earth funeral has the best method of dealing with bodies at the time of death. Their method is the least intrusive and has the least impact on the planet. It just makes sense.

The staff at the Auburn facility are highly professional and pleasant to work with. The facility is state of the art and their process makes the most sense for both the body and the earth. Knowing that I will be part of a beautiful landscape is peaceful.

Caring, professional and flexible all the way through. Thank you!

I wanted an alternative method of burial, one that would be more Eco friendly. It’s not important to me to be memorialized with a gravestone or placed in a mausoleum. I love the idea of being returned to Mother Earth in a more natural way.

Nicole was awesome. This process exactly fits with my beliefs and peace of mind

Nicole was kind & walked me thru the process

Friendly and courteous and the whole idea of being returned to the soil has always been a thought I've had ever since I started using bokosi to recycle my table scraps. For years I told the family I wanted to be bokosied and now its possible.

Excellent service overall, Amelia was great from start to finish.

Responsive, compassionate, efficient, and communicative. No surprises or hitches.

Make people aware of death options, that aren't as harmful to the environment.

We totally believe that this is a great company that provides a great service.

I think human composting is the only ethical option.

The experience I had with my husband was very positive. Even though I didn't have anything arranged ahead of time, it was all taken care of quickly and professionally.

I was impressed with the helpfulness of the staff. Plus, I just believe in your mission. Thank you.

This winter I learned about Earth funerals, wrote them and called them and drove to their facility to check them out - at their invite. Being an avid teacher of environmental concerns, Earth funerals fit right into how I feel our remains should be returned to the matrix from which it came. To use my used up physical self to bring life to others - tiny though they may be, is absolutely perfect. I carry my card wherever I go - even on my body when hiking. I highly recommend going this direction who is interested in Leaving No Trace at our end of life.

This is a way for environmental concerned inviduals to give his or her final gift of kindness to saving our planet.

Green!

All interactions and questions were cordial and complete. Thanks

The option to have our remains converted into compost, rather than ash by cremation or bones by traditional burial is the only reasonable option given the fact that the process requires nearly zero energy emissions, unlike cremation, and results in giving life to organic matter should the soil be used to restore a forest and/or a garden owned by a loved one. And the cost is affordable compared to traditional costs of burial at a licensed cemetery. Moreover, your staff is extremely competent in handling our questions and providing insight into the whole process, let alone explaining the benefits to our environment by electing to revert our remains into compost.

Composting feels right as an end of life solution to what is, after all, a waste disposal issue. Cost is also quite reasonable.

Our experience to-date with Earth (gathering information about Earth, communicating with Earth via e-mail and phone, visiting with John and touring the the Auburn Earth facility, and completing our sign-up paperwork online) has been exemplary. However, we have had no need to utilize Earth's services to-date, which will be for us and our loved ones the most important aspect of our Earth experiences.

You guys are the best. Such an industry change movement

Professional, kind, and the right thing for our environment

Very, very kind, esp. Amelia.

The digital experience, phone, and email exchanges have been exceptionally positive. The website and functionality speak volumes about an organization, and Earth's website and online registration process is a 10! Very simple to follow, easy to understand, user-friendly site speed, soothing design (color, font, and images all reflect care). I appreciated the follow-up email and newsletter.

First of all, the process fits what I feel is the best green option for my burial. After visiting the establishment and seeing how the process was accomplished, I was even more convinced. John's time spent answering our questions and walking us through it were very much appreciated and helpful. Knowing that my remains will end up near the Olympic Mountains where we enjoy hiking made it all the better.

The process was very easy and quick. Nicole was pleasant to deal with and answered my concerns. The whole process was taken care of over the phone and computer.

Greenest, reasonable price, very friendly people n support, local biz, convenient

Earth took care of us and our loved one with dignity and great care . Communication was seamless and we always were able to track each step easily. Would highly recommend

Amelia comforted me through all that was needed and more that was just being a friend. She is the Boss dog with a heart. Thank you

The kindness with which we have been treated during this painful time has meant so much. Also being proactively kept informed about my son progress through the transformation journey has been very helpful.

Company provides the service I want at a reasonable price.

The process is natural and leaves no carbon footprint. I like that. Amelia was extremely helpful and patient with me.

The staff was kind and very helpful. The process to set up arrangements was very easy.

The idea that my remains will help nurture young saplings forward into eternity in an area atop Hurricane Ridge, is my ideal vision of Heaven. Easy, simple, steps throughout the contractural process. I am so grateful for this port of entry into my end times, through which I have found a profound peace in contemplating death.

A great eco-friendly option for end of life.

Good communication.

We had a great experience with Earth. We had learned of composting when it was first approved in Washington State and reached out when we learned it was approved here in Oregon. All of our questions were answered, both with the process and with the financing. The process was clearly the most earth-friendly, both from the reduction in climate changing releases and in reducing the space required to dispose of our remains. The financing met our desire to pre-pay with no risk the funding won't be there when needed. Most important Earth takes care of all arrangements. None of our children or grandchildren need to deal with permits, transportation and the like. None of them will feel a need to have their lives disrupted for a funeral; all of them can have input on scheduling a visitation to the Olympic Peninsula for a family gathering.

Less carbon impact than other methods. The team was kind, efficient and flexible to meet our needs.

Very professional and helpful. They have a great idea as to what the earth needs, and are doing the right thing.

Delightful to work with; prompt answers, kindness in helping us fill out the forms. We researched three different companies, liked this one the best, and after encountering their customer service, knew we picked the best!

I would like to thank Earth fondly for being there in my time of need and comfort, special thanks go out to Nicole Smith who helped make all the arrangements for me and my lost loved one RJ. They truly helped me through a time of loss with great understanding and true sympathy for what I was going through. Thanks everyone on Earth's team.

The concept is beautiful and Nicole was wonderful.

Kind, considerate and accommodating. Amelia was wonderful and all staff seemed to be caring.

Good communication.

Earth offers the most sustainable way to leave this existence in the most natural way - the way most other beings leave what's left to be shared with those coming.

Excellent service, great communication, highly recommend.

Very helpful and kind from start to finish. Always willing to answer questions as they came to mind.

They were so caring and kind throughout the entire process. My husband died suddenly and we had no arrangements made. They answered all my questions even when I repeated myself. The process does take time and you can select none, some, or all of the soil. When you pick it up remember, it is compost and smells accordingly. I had always thought being buried in a box seemed odd. And I had no idea the quantity of resources used in cremation. I plan to use their services as well. It just seems like the best way to complete this journey on earth.

Environmentally it is the right thing to do.

This is how we are supposed to end up…as soil for the trees, plants…earth! No chemicals, no impervious coffin, no land occupation.

Folks were very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. Prepayment made in a very secure method. They will take the burden off our scattered family and its the best one can do for the environment.
