When funeral arrangements are complete, questions remain
Following cremation, responsibility for the appropriate care of the ashes returns to the family, quietly and without ceremony. Many people feel unsure how best to proceed. Earthbound exists to offer clarity at this point, and support in the moments that follow.
At its centre, a living tree, chosen by you. Beneath it, a stone vessel holds the ashes, combined with specially prepared soil to support growth. A connected digital memorial preserves stories, photographs, and reflections alongside it.
Honour your loved ones with a living, growing memorial
Designed to be cared for at home, an Earthbound memorial becomes a place of connection: daily connection with the person remembered; ongoing connection between those left behind, and preservation of your loved one’s life story, for connection to future generations.
Each Earthbound memorial is created as a complete, considered system. Each element has a defined purpose, designed to support the memorial as it matures over time.
A gateway to a digital memorial page that tells your loved one’s life story.
Integrated Soil
Naturally alkaline ashes combined with specially treated soil create a stable growing environment for your tree.
Memorial Plinth
A stone vessel designed to support the living tree, whilst securely holding ashes.
Living Memorial Trees
A tree, selected carefully by you, as a tribute to your loved one.
Felt Pot
A breathable pot that allows roots to pass through it, encouraging the tree to mature, without restriction.
Engraved Stone
An personalised marker bearing your loved one’s details.
A place for shared memories
Each Earthbound memorial includes a private digital memorial page. This is an interactive space where family and friends can gather photographs, stories, and reflections in one place. Photographs are arranged along a timeline of life events, to create a visual story of a life remembered.
The Earthbound approach is modern, but grounded. Our intention is to create a memorial that can be lived with, over time. We do not seek to replace existing rituals or beliefs. We simply offer an alternative remembrance that can be integrated into daily life – quietly and personally – for years to come.
