Take a closer look inside Earth Funeral’s East Coast facility, the largest soil transformation facility in America.

Opened in 2026, this facility was created to serve families across the East Coast with a natural alternative to burial and cremation. Every aspect of the space was designed to support a thoughtful, respectful soil transformation process.

Watch the tour and see where care, science, and sustainability come together to help families create a meaningful legacy.

Many families feel drawn to soil transformation because it reflects how their loved one lived.

Some chose it because their loved one cared deeply about nature or believed in giving back. Others say it just felt right.

Unlike options that can feel like an ending, soil transformation creates something that lives on.

After soil transformation, the soil is returned to your family. What you do with it is entirely personal.

Some plant a tree or create a memorial garden. Some share portions with loved ones so everyone can have their own living memorial.

It can be deeply comforting to watch new life grow.

Come inside America’s largest human composting facility.

At Earth Funeral’s East Coast facility, soil transformation happens with care, dignity, and intention. This is where bodies gently become nutrient-rich soil that families can use for memorial planting, spreading, or sharing with loved ones.

For many families, seeing the space helps make human composting feel less unfamiliar. The process is natural, carefully monitored, and designed to offer a meaningful alternative to burial and cremation.

Take a look inside.

Human composting is America’s #1 choice for an alternative to burial.

A new national study by Choice Mutual compared options like tree pods, mushroom suits, memorial reefs, sky burial, and even space burial. Human composting was the option Americans chose most.

Also called soil transformation, it’s a gentle, natural process that returns the body to the earth as nutrient-rich soil for planting, sharing, and spreading.

At Earth Funeral, we help families make arrangements for soil transformation with care, clarity, and support.

America has spoken.

The latest 2026 Choice Mutual Funeral Preferences Survey found that natural organic reduction, also known as soil transformation or human composting, is now the leading alternative burial choice among Americans surveyed.

A few years ago, most Americans had never heard of it. Today, it leads every alternative burial option in the survey, ahead of green burial, tree pods, aquamation, mushroom suits, and memorial reefs.

We took a closer look at what this shift says about families, environmental values, death positivity, and the future of end-of-life planning.
