Cremation ashes do not break down like ordinary organic matter. They are naturally alkaline and contain salts that may interfere with soil and root development when used in concentrated amounts.

𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐬𝐨𝐢𝐥 𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭:

• Helps buffer concentrated pH and sodium conditions
• Supports a more balanced soil structure
• Adds biologically active soil materials
• Supports nutrient availability in the surrounding soil
• Helps create better conditions for roots growing nearby
• Allows ashes to remain in contact with living soil over time

𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐀𝐒𝐇𝐄𝐒 𝐅𝐄𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐙𝐄𝐑?

No. Cremation ashes contain minerals, but they are not a complete fertilizer and should not be treated like one.

Aspiring Ashes does not claim to turn cremated remains into fertilizer or nutrients. Our Living Memorial Soil Additive is designed to help prepare and condition the surrounding soil so it can better support plant life in a memorial setting.

𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐃𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐀𝐒𝐇𝐄𝐒 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐑𝐈𝐁𝐔𝐓𝐄?

Think of cremation ashes a little like a mineral tea bag within the soil.

Much like tea slowly releases into water, cremation ashes can gradually release portions of their mineral content into the surrounding soil. Plant roots do not absorb the ashes themselves; they can draw from certain minerals as those minerals become available in forms the plant can use.

The specially prepared soil provides the balance, organic matter, biology, moisture, and other nutrients the roots need—while the cremation ashes remain a meaningful part of the memorial growing environment.

𝐌𝐄𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐋 𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐏𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒

𝐇𝐎𝐍𝐎𝐑 𝐀𝐍 𝐄𝐗𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐑𝐄𝐄

• Prepared ashes may be placed in a trench around an established tree or garden.

• Trenching allows you to honor a tree that is already growing without buying a new tree or biodegradable urn.

Follow the included directions to avoid disturbing the tree’s main roots.

𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐄 𝐒𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐋 𝐌𝐄𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐋𝐒

You do not have to use all the ashes in one place. | Share-Packs allow ashes to be divided among:

• Children or siblings
• Family members in different locations
• Several memorial trees or gardens
• Indoor and outdoor memorial plants
• A planting and a later scattering ceremony
