How human composting works in Ogden, UT
Ogden has always had a close relationship with the mountains and waterways that define northern Utah. Whether you've hiked Waterfall Canyon into the Wasatch above the city, walked the Bonneville Shoreline Trail along the ancient bench of Lake Bonneville with views stretching to the Great Salt Lake, or explored the wetlands and forests of the Ogden Nature Center in the heart of the valley, there's a sense here that the natural world deserves care. Human composting reflects that same instinct.
Human composting is an environmentally-friendly alternative to cremation or traditional burial. Over a 30–45 day process, the body is gently transformed into nutrient-rich soil. It is sometimes referred to as soil transformation, body composting, natural organic reduction or terramation.
Ogden families can choose how much soil they'd like returned, to plant, spread, or share, and the remainder is donated to conservation projects for growing trees, restoring habitats, and nurturing native plants. The process returns the nutrients in our bodies to the natural world, and helps protect the planet for future generations. Whether you need our human composting services now, or you're planning for the future, Earth Funeral is here to help Ogden residents.
