Chris Wasley founded Sacred Soil and has created it to operate as a boutique Vermont facility.
This allows for a level of attention and customization. You can be assured that the "recipe" used to return you to the earth will be balanced to perfection, creating a nutrient-dense soil.
Sacred Soil is housed in a thoughtfully converted building with character, grounded in the history
of the Deerfield Valley, rather than a sterile medical environment. The commitment to adaptive
reuse aligns perfectly with your values of preservation and thoughtful renovation.
Whitingham is a quiet, rural community in Southern Vermont. It offers the kind of privacy that is
difficult to find in urban centers. Sacred Soil provides a sanctuary away from prying eyes,
ensuring that your transition is as peaceful and private as a winter morning.
Ultimately, terramation is about the soil created at the end of the process. When this soil is
returned to your family or scattered in a quiet Vermont meadow, it will carry the essence of a
place that values nature, authenticity, and hard work.
We partner with The Natural Funeral, pioneers in Natural Organic Reduction, with over 200 completed processes in Boulder County, Colorado.
