Cremation, Burial, or Compost?
Many clients wish that their parents and relatives left clear direction for end of life choices, they were uncomfortable with guessing what their relatives wanted.
Turns out, there are more choices for what happens to our bodies than most of us realize. Traditional burial and cremation remain the standards, but green burial, aquamation, and human composting offer increasingly appealing alternatives (yes, composting—and it’s legal in California). Each comes with different costs, environmental impacts, rituals, and practical considerations. Learning your options now means you get to choose what feels right—and your family won’t have to guess later.
