Brooklyn’s own Green-Wood Cemetery has announced that its team will be building a state-of-the-art facility that turns deceased people into fertile, DNA-free soil, in careful collaboration with the German firm Meine Erde. Opening date could be late 2027 or early 2028. In the meantime, if this method is desired by any New Yorker, Fitting Tribute can arrange to transport your loved one by car to Sacred Soil in Vermont, or by air to Recompose in Seattle where families are having uplifting experiences with this all-natural process. You could bring gorgeous, fertile earth home (probably in smaller quantities), or scatter at any number of gorgeous sites near either facility.
