Natural Organic Reduction (human composting) typically takes about 30 to 60 days to complete. During this time, the body is transformed into nutrient-rich soil through a controlled process of microbial activity, warmth, and oxygen. Afterward, the soil is cured for a few additional weeks before it is ready to be returned to the family.

Yes, you can donate your organs and still choose human composting. However, organ donation typically requires the individual to pass away in a hospital, where specialized equipment keeps the organs viable until retrieval. Medical professionals remove the organs within a few days. Full body donation to medical schools and research programs often involves embalming, which prevents natural organic reduction. Some programs, however, freeze the body instead of embalming. If you're considering full body donation, we recommend checking with the program to confirm whether non-embalmed donation is an option.

Devices like pacemakers are removed before the process begins, especially because they can pose a safety risk. As for other items like metal implants or fillings they don’t break down naturally, so once the NOR cycle is complete, we carefully sift through the remaining material to remove them. Those items are then either recycled (if possible) or disposed of in a responsible and environmentally friendly way.

Thirteen states have legalized Natural Organic Reduction as a legal form of disposition, with several others currently considering legislation. See the full legality map below for more details.
