My husband died a couple months ago. Today we spread his compost remains in our garden. It was a precious and moving occasion; one he would have approved since we have him close and he's giving back to the earth with himself. "

This whole system of rendering our no-longer-usable bodies into material that is immediately useable to Nature fills my heart. The staff is extraordinarily responsive and kind and helpful. The cost is reasonable. They've really thought this whole thing out, and they've thought it out not just with their intellect but also with their hearts.

This is why I highly recommend Earth Funeral - Packages are easy to purchase with upfront pricing. Our director, Nicole, was always available to answer our questions and assist in making amendments to the death certificate. Thank you Nicole and Earth Funeral.

I could not be happier or more satisfied with my choice to have Earth handle my end. What I know for sure is that the 2 primary final choices just did not feel comfortable to me. When I found Earth, I breathed a sigh of relief and immediately found what I considered to be my best choice. The decision just felt right and natural to me. I dealt with Amelia whom I found to be very responsive to my questions and concerns and walked me through the process making it exceedingly easy and simple. Thank you Amelia and Earth.

From my first contact I was pleased with the information and the way it was provided. The two people I talked to -- Emily, who gave the video tour, and Amelia, who helped me sign up -- were patient, helpful and just plain nice. Deciding what to do with one's body is a huge decision. Lots of choices. I believe we have to think & decide differently as our beloved planet fills up and shows stress. It needs help to survive. Giving my body as nourishment is the last way I can do my small part.

Losing a loved one is the hardest thing Iβve ever gone through. The team at Earth has been nothing but kind, professional, and patient.

Would 100% recommend to others and is something I am considering for myself.

My Aunt was so comforted knowing that she would be composted. She excitedly told all her friends. I was also comforted knowing that her final wishes would be granted and she could go back to the nature that she loved. We are so lucky to live in a state where human composting is legal. Earth Funeral Home was responsive and compassionate. They made the difficult transition more bearable and our family is so grateful.

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.

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.

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.
