The facility where my late husband spent several months was located near me and my family, so we were offered to come sit on a bench in front of the facility whenever we wanted to spend time with my late husband. ![]() ![]() The caretaker who looked after my late husband for several months was amazingly wonderful and took great pride in his job. We chose to start the process with a laying-in ceremony that was beautiful and took place at a beautiful location.

The Natural Funeral’s first water cremation client in Boulder county told us, “I just want to be compost.” That was before she knew anything about alkaline hydrolysis. See our Water Cremation page for more information. Water Cremation really does allow you to “become a tree” because this most precious of fertilizers supports plant growth. You can receive a small, token amount of this bio-nutrient back or donate it. Water cremation uses water and alkaline compounds to create a sterile, nutrient-rich liquid that serves as a super fertilizer. See our Body Composting page for more information. It transforms your last remains into beneficial soil. The Body Composting process takes months rather than years. The Natural Funeral was the first funeral home in Colorado to offer this service with its own Colorado-built Chrysalis composting vessel.

We offer Body Composting (technically known as Natural Reduction) as well as Water Cremation (also known as alkaline hydrolysis). The Natural Funeral now has two new ecological forms of body disposition after death, in addition to green burial. This ceremony can be profound and healing. ![]() We invite family to participate to the degree that they want. We gently wash and anoint the body with essential oils.
