See why families choose Earth
We take great pride in going above and beyond for the families we serve. But donโt just take our word for it, take theirs.

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.

My family and I chose Earth when my husband died suddenly. Weโre all feel really good about our choice. It was so hard for us to lose Don, but gives us some peace to feel like he continues to nurture the earth. I tell everyone about it and his cool it is.

The idea is great. Actually, would rate it lower. The people I have talked with about it mention how expensive it is compared to cremation, which it is. That will keep a lot of people away. Might have kept me away had I not been so caught up with the Green-Ness of composting

My wife was actively investigating a composting alternative upon her demise. We both read information about Earth Funeral and attended their webinar. It sold the both of us and we went ahead with the purchase. We were pleasantly surprised at the low cost and comprehensive services provided and feel we reached the goal of an environmentally positive burial..The process also eliminates any burden to our children to deal with funeral arrangements. Plus the people we interacted with at Earth Funeral were first class and answered all our questions. Highly recommend.

Losing my husband has been a very emotional time for me. Earth was a process we had heard about years ago, but it was not available in California. He was a outdoors man, fishing and camping. I'm going to take him to his favorite places. My husband would be very happy. Everyone at Earth has been very professional and helpful. Thank you for being with me during this proces.

It is an easy and smooth process for our family members to handle that part of our passing, the pricing was very reasonable compared to other similar businesses we researched, the staff was very professional, friendly, and answered all of our questions to our complete satisfaction. Earth funeral had the best explanation of the process and positive reasons for choosing soil transformation than the other similar businesses, which also makes it easy for us to refer Earth funeral to our family members and friends.

An extraordinary alternative to traditional burial, but also a marvelous company to work with. The value of the service cannot be overstated: for a fraction of a traditional burial, you are contributing to an environmentally sound and meaningful disposition of your remains. The pre-paid rate includes repatriation from anywhere in the world, which is a remarkable benefit. Staff were thoughtful, well informed, and with zero pressure. . .which is understandable, since the service sells itself. I hope that many others will choose this option when making their plans.

I am very pleased to of found Earth Funeral. I have been wanting to have this set-up for myself and my wife before our passing so my children would not have to go through the stress and the cost of the funeral arrangements. Usually in these circumstances the family during their mourning are left making difficult decisions. I feel during those times the family members making the arrangements are easily taking advantage of by the funeral home in cost. It is good to be in control of that. Also, no footprint is left by casket burials or cremation vaults. The personnel at Earth Funeral are so pleasant to deal with and get right back to you if you leave a message. They are willing to answer all questions, set up tours of the process and layout exactly how the deceased is transported from anywhere in the world back home. Just wonderful to have a service such as Earth Funeral to make this time in our lives, that we will all experience, friendly to our environment. It is a peaceful feeling knowing that your passing will not disturb or take away the beauty of this land for those still living to enjoy and appreciate. Respectfully, Ron Anderson 03/12/2025

I've been looking for an AFFORDBLE Green burial option. Earth Funeral has what I was looking for: no burial plot to buy, no funeral expenses, a way that my body can feed the earth as compost. The options of embalming and cremation use chemicals and too much energy and I am concerned about the future of our precious Earth's survival if I use these 2 methods. This company is very thorough and easy to work with. A very pleasant staff and professional.

We were updating our trust and realized that we no longer liked the idea of cremation. Earth Funeral came up in Google for soil transformation.

It's better for our planet too!

Earth Funeral staff have been amazingly caring, communicative, and responsive to questions and requests. Despite being a new company, everyone our family spoke to were warm and helpful. They really understand how to make family members feel comfortable and informed. From the first introduction to this new funeral option, to calling them to retrieve our Mom's body, to setting up the memorial page, to ultimately arranging for the cremain soil to be sent to our home, everything was handled professionally and compassionately. Our funeral director, Amelia Gallegos kept in contact with us after Mom died, every step of the way. Overall, despite the difficult circumstances, it was a very satisfactory experience and would highly recommend this company.

As a dedicated composter, I enjoy seeing my kitchen waste, my horse's manure, and yard waste turn into rich, fragrant humus. When I discovered my own body could do the same thing, I signed up right away. Personally, I have always been appalled by the idea of being buried in an expensive box and decomposing inside it six feet underground. That left cremation which I knew wasn't particularly earth friendly due to high carbon emissions and high energy use. When I happened onto Earth on Instagram I knew I found my final remains solution.

And if I change my mind and decide to be cremated or buried instead, the policy will transfer and cover the new plan.

I like the idea of my body's nutrients being put to use after my passing for reforestation conservation projects, and contributing to a more healthy climate rather than emitting hazardous gases into the atmosphere such as cremation does. It would almost seem like a part of me exists still among the trees. Also like that my family can claim a small portion of the soil for their personal garden.

The process of converting a body into soil, into something that would nurture life is what Sandy and I were hoping to do when we passed on. Finding Earth Funeral at this point in our lives when we had to face one of us passing was a godsend in everyway possible.

I am so happy that I discovered "Earth Funeral" as I am so concerned about the environment! I now believe that in my death I will be doing good things for the earth instead of adding to pollution through the usual ways of dealing with dead bodies! Also, now that this death process is completely paid for my children won't be burdened with huge expenses for typical ways of dealing with dead bodies!
