See why families choose Earth

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!

Customer attention, price, belief in the process.

One person is passing away soon. Another person has similar values as to what you provide.

My first contact was when I emailed for a Price Quote in October 2023. I received a response and a follow up call from Senior Care Advisor Chris Coble. After researching the Earth Funeral materials, and our finances allowed, I contacted Chris for an in-person tour. Our daughter attended the tour & asked questions with us. Chris is very knowledgeable and answered our many questions & concerns. Chris was extremely welcoming. He showed us the facility and an up-close view of a vessel and samples of organic mulch, woodchips & wildflowers that will be added. Our 45-minute scheduled tour lasted over 1 1/2 hours, but Chris never made us feel it was time for us to leave! I have already given the EARTH pamphlets to my cousin & best friend. I have shared information with my family & friends. I even made a presentation to my 2 Granddaughters who are in their 20's. My Husband & I very much support the values of EARTH and feel very comfortable with our bodies going to earth when it is our time. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I was thrilled to find Earth Funeral! It is important to me to leave a smaller carbon footprint and the idea of being returned to the earth in the form of nutritious soil is wonderful. I was also pleased to see that they offered the option to be picked up from anywhere in the world for a reasonable fee…….this was a real selling point for me as I am doing some “late-in-life” traveling. The team at Earth Funeral walked me through the online document signing, which was very helpful and reassuring. This was the final piece that needed to be in my trust. Thank you Earth Funeral!

It has been a positive and uncomplicated experience for a hard life issue

Human composting is the most eco-friendly way of disposing of human remains.

Through the soil transformation process and EARTH, every single 'road block we found with previous funeral arrangements were removed! The employees were extremely professional and patient. The sacredness of the death experience is maintained. The earth contaminants are zero! And the price was very fair, especially with no selling pressure to buy! I cannot recommend this business and it's practices enough!!! Thank you very much Chris Coble for guiding us through our decision; Christine for the virtual tour of the WA. facility, and those who made themselves available as needed. The two of us have greater peace of mind due to EARTH.com.

I want to minimize my negative impact on the earth. This is my final act of respect. Your company and employees gave me the information I needed to make this decision, and were kind and supportive. I pre-paid services, so I can rest easy that my family will have less to deal with when I die. It put my mind at ease about that time of life.

Very easy to work with, good sustainability product, supports my values.

Your team was really knowledgeable and helpful.

Sounded better than burning. Soil is better use than ashes.

My husband Bill and I felt it was the perfect last journey for him and myself in the future. Very peaceful.

Excellent and very thoughtful service.

I am so happy with the solution earth provided. I did not want to lose my husband, but since I did we had to find a solution. It makes us feel good that Don is still supporting the earth. The staff at earth has been responsive, sensitive, and supportive throughout the process. My family and I look forward to visiting when the land is open.

It’s a good idea

Kind, caring and knowledgable staff. Providing a rare but important environmentally friendly option with excellent service.

The service was nothing less than excellent. I’ve already recommended you to several friends.

I love this process ! I did recommend it to several friends, but they already had plans in place.

The most natural and humane way to return and help this beautiful fragile earth; which has supported and cared for me. Easy to arrange with the added security of an insurance policy for travelers, i.e. snowbirds.

The concept is most humane and natural to me, as I acknowledge I am part of this beautiful yet fragile earth. Earth's team was most helpful in setting this up and offers a much needed insurance for travelers i.e. snow birds. which I was not apprised with other similar companies.

The concept of earth to earth is more appealing than the alternatives.

My desire is to have an end of life plan that isn’t daunting or imposing on my loved ones. I chose Earth Funeral because soil transformation is far less expensive than traditional burial costs, and the process is eco-friendly. The staff are courteous and readily available to answer my questions. After the simple enrollment process, I have peace of mind knowing my end of life plan is aligned with my values.

My sister passed suddenly in July and had told my Mom just days before that if she were to die, she would want something where she could return to the circle of life or have a tree or flowers planted over her. We looked around and found the Earth Funeral Services and they were so helpful and compassionate and explained the process and we knew it was exactly what my sister would have wanted. So very happy we found them and now my husband, Mother and I are all putting instructions that this is what we want done for ourselves as well.

People were kind, we were kept informed of the entire process. I believe composting is better for the planet.

My daughter had expressed that she would like to be buried under a tree. We could not find this method, but EARTH Funeral came very close with their method. We were able to place the soil they sent us in with our soil and plant a tree of our choice to remember her always. We were totally appreciative of their attitude each time we spoke with them.

The service was prompt and compassionate and spent time to answer our questions and kept us informed about the process for my sister. My husband, mother and myself are now going to be writing in our wills that this is what we want for ourselves as well.

Your method was the closest we found to what my daughter had said she wanted. Each contact with you was handled by your staff in the nicest manner. I really dislike feeling like I am dealing with someone who is very fake with their reactions. That was never an issue with Earth.

I like the prompt, friendly informative service.

Environmentally alternative to cremation

Speaking of and planning for death can be a difficult issue to take on, but necessary. I asked for material to review and then my contacts with Earth were helpful both in my knowledge level and my comfort in my choice.

I believe I have a passion and I’ve always been searching for something like Earth and recently. I came across as I was getting my death certification and then my dad passed and the first thing without a thought was to call Earth. I know that this is what I wanted for my father and I know this is what I want for myself and I do believe that there is no other choice going forward as our planet Sustain coffins being buried on top of each other and that pollution in the toxins that go along with cremation is also not sustainable for our planet and earth is not only sustainable, but it is beautiful and everybody there has been absolutely wonderful walking me through each and every step and no question is a dumb question and for every time I called and had one there was a beautiful answer and a loving kind human being to speak with me and I got to watch the process when I logon to see when the 45 days were up and where my dad soil was going to go and some of it came home to me where it is going to be placed in sacred places on my land and some family members lands and I’m teaching the grandchildren about this and how to grow with the soil and it’s been a beautiful experience and it really helps because going through all the emotions and heartache of loss in the morning and the grief process knowing that you’re doing something beautiful that’s going to keep our planet pure and surviving for generations to come. It’s a big thing and I think that this shed so much knowledge and light on that and it is just absolutely amazing and I could not recommend, anything more than this and it is so dear to my heart I think that the more we can spread the word about this the better our planet is going to be 🙏🏽🫶🏽🙏🏽

Because I believe it’s the only sustainable and sacred way to move forward for the planet and it just is something I strongly believe in

As of this point in time, I have no complaints about our interaction.

Ecological benefits of process. Staff was very helpful in answering questions.

Earth needs help and this is a great way of making a strong personal commitment toward healing the damage that has happened over my lifetime.

Earth Funeral offers a fantastic service for those who are concerned about the environmental and costs of graveyard buriels and cremation. The advisors at Earth Funeral are great educators and communicators and offer competitive pricing. Paying ahead saves the hassle and cost for those you leave behind; you make your own arrangements which is comforting to your loved ones. An added bonus, your payment is protected by an insurance policy and they offer travel insurance. We feel comforted to know our remains will be composted and used for conservation purposes, we couldn't be happier with Earth Funeral. It is worth looking into, we did not know about this service until my sister told me and we are so happy we have chosen this option.

Chris helped me. He is so kind, patient, helpful, knowledgeable. I am so lucky that I got to fill everything out with him. I am not very good on the computer and he was amazing. This is such a brilliant idea and I am grateful that I found them.

It is a wonderful idea. Chris made it easy and comfortable. He is especially kind and caring. I am very grateful for him.

The process is good for the environment, the process is natural and the online purchasing process was quick.

Through the extensive caring given to every aspect of of their service, Earth is the epitome of giving back. I have and will continue to spread the good news of the work Earth does. Many have already conveyed they will be contacting Earth in their day of need, but I encourage all to plan ahead as I am doing. Thank you Earth!

I have given a lot of thought to what I would like done with my remains when I no longer need this body. Earth funeral presents me with an idea that pleases me. I was raised on the concept of dust to dust, so cremation was my first choice. The thought of being a part of the Earth pleased me. Giving back to the Earth a little bit of the nourishment she has given pleases me. I told my children to grow some pot - call it Nonna’s special and get everyone high on me. That I am not going to be taking up space in a box in the ground pleases me. Earth funeral spells freedom for me; freedom from the old way of doing things. Sandina Mayberry-Cristal

We were drawn to Earth as an alternative to burial and cremation that is "earth friendly". The experience we have had so far with Earth employees have been kind and caring. We expect nothing less when the day comes to use their services.

Earth is straightforward, economical and supportive. They will be there to help us pass with dignity and respect for nature

Earth Funeral is affordable, environmentally friendly, and the team is easy to work with. I especially like the idea that this service will pick up the body no matter where it is in the world -- be sure and get this insurance when you purchase Earth Funeral. I like the idea that your body is recycled to make soil that can grow trees and that you are not adding to the carbon footprint. Highly recommended. You can even include funeral floral arrangements, so that everything is recycled into new soil.

Earth Funeral.com is an excellent, earth friendly method to care for the body once a person has continued on. No taking up space on land and embalming, no cremation heat and fumes released into the atmosphere. A natural method of body disposal, washed, shrouded and composted with wildflowers and earth. After composting, one's body, in the form of compost, is returned to the earth. Affordable, climate friendly, spiritual. The team at Earth Funeral do not use high pressure sales tactics, they are educational and communicative and we appreciate the ability to prepay for this service and not leave it to our family members to sort out. Thank you for providing this service.

You were wonderful throughout the process. Before, during and after. Thank you!

Sarah gave me the time I needed to make this decision. She was genuinely helpful. My friends enjoyed hearing about these ideas and my decision.

Thank you so much for providing this earth friendly service. Your customer service is excellent and communication clear and educational. Thanks again. Patti Daggett

The Earth Funeral team was nothing but helpful and the process was quite easy.

Death is difficult enough. Earth offers a lovely alternative that also protects our environment. The image of a body going back to the earth on a bed of wildflowers is lovely and we know that we will be handled with care.

Believe it is the best environmentally friendly choice

Why Earth specifically? First we ever heard of such and not aware of others providing such service. Information we saw on web site and virtual tour helpful. (Washington location relatively near to where we live, so may be a harder sell to folks further away.)

Think outside the box.

If you are looking for an alternative to standard burial practices, this company has figured it out! They were very helpful and it is easy to set up. Now my body will be used as it was intended, to nourish other living beings on our fragile planet.

Well most of what I should review, I haven’t experienced yet. All we’ve done is pay for it so far, but here’s what I’m thinking: I’m proud of the fact that I’m doing something that takes up no space, and I can grow a tree, like an Avocado, or a Peach tree. Not as expensive as a normal casket ⚰️ in the ground type of burial and it’s already paid for, my wife or my children won’t have to do a thing, but make a call. It’s fairly new, and it seems a more natural way to deal with death. It’s not tied up with a bunch of religious rigmarole in which I don’t participate, so this is better for me. I’m not going to get a Twenty-one Gun Salute, a draped coffin nor a news story at 11:00. So, “Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.” “Roll me up and ‘mulch’ me when I die.” Borrowed from and apologies to - Willie Nelson

It makes the most sense. I was looking at green burial in the burial tradition, but like the earth solution much better. I was also looking for a method that does not embalm. Earth meets all the best criteria. Thanks, Delores

Well, I’m proud of the fact that I’m doing something that takes up no space, and I can grow a tree, like an Avocado, or a Peach tree. Not as expensive as a normal casket :coffin: in the ground type of burial. It’s fairly new, and it seems more natural, not tied up with a bunch of religious rigmarole in which I don’t participate, so this is better for me. I’m not going to get a Twenty-one Gun Salute, a draped coffin nor a news story at 11:00. “Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.”

Earth Funeral has some pretty amazing staff! Very helpful with any questions you might have. This process seems like the most ethical way to finalize one’s last final decision on this wonderful planet…

I love the concept of actually returning to the soil when I k is longer need my body for support.
