AWAKE

Canada’s leader in eco-friendly resting places. Giving families a greener goodbye, turning ashes to earth with our patented soil solution and smart design.

11/27/2025

1 in 5 Canadian households have a loved one’s ashes at home.

60% want our ashes in nature. Are you one of them? 🌲

If you’ve been holding onto cremated remains—whether for months or even years—wondering what feels right, you’re not alone. Many families want something more personal than the traditional options they already know... something that truly gives back to the earth. 🌍

That’s why we created our Memorial Planting Kits. Our patented Ashes to Earth soil blend turns cremated remains into plant-friendly earth, so you can create living tributes in memorial gardens, potted plants, or meaningful places in nature. And in your own timeline, in a way that feels right for you. 💚

Why did two women in their 30s risk it all to enter the funeral space?

👇This is us, Amanda and Lauren. It started as a tale of unfortunate events. After losing several loved ones in quick succession, we found ourselves searching for a memorial that felt right—something personal, beautiful, and that gave back to the earth. Simple, right?

Like most Canadians, our families chose cremation. But what we discovered shocked us: cremation ashes are actually harmful to plants, with a pH similar to bleach and off-the-chart levels of sodium and calcium. To top it off, there were no science-backed solutions available in all of Canada.

So we changed that.

🪴Working with world-leading scientists and innovators, we offer a patented soil blend that transforms cremated remains into plant-friendly, organic earth. Today, our Memorial Planting Kits are available at funeral homes across
, and cemeteries across are rolling out entire gardens with our product.

If you’ve ever wondered whether there’s a better way to remember those we love, we’d be honoured to have you follow along. Together, we can make a greener ending. 🌿

🌱 Cemeteries have an incredible opportunity to be leaders in local sustainability while meeting growing demand for green options.

Our co-founder Amanda sat down with the to talk about how cemeteries are transforming into vibrant, natural spaces that families actually want to visit.

Public interest in green options is rising. We help cemetery operators create beautiful eco-friendly cremation sections, implement sustainable practices, and nurture living memorials that become community assets for generations.

Your cemetery can be part of this shift. Let’s talk about what’s possible. 💚

Families are asking for something different.

60% of families now want their ashes in nature—but many cemeteries struggle to offer meaningful natural options that are:

✓ Financially sustainable
✓ Easy to maintain long-term
✓ Dignified and beautiful

That’s where Ashes to Earth Infinity Gardens come in.

Our regenerative community gardens use patented soil science to transform cremated remains into plant-friendly material that nourishes the earth. Unlike DIY scattering gardens, every interment contributes to a living cycle of renewal. And unlike traditional plots, these gardens never run out of space.

For families, they provide a peaceful, affordable memorial without the burden of upkeep. And for your cemetery, additional annual revenue, lower operating costs, and something families genuinely want.

Scattering gardens aren’t just an amenity or a trend. They’re becoming an expectation.

If you’d like to see our Infinity Gardens at your local cemetery, forward them this post and let’s start a conversation.

🤍 Grief has no single path.

🌱 We created our Memorial Planting Kits to give funeral directors the tools to offer families meaningful, flexible options that honour both tradition and personal remembrance.

🪴 Each planting kit opens doors to endless memorial opportunities, at home or in nature, using patented soil science that turns cremated remains into organic earth.

💚 was one of the first funeral homes to offer our Memorial Planting Kits (which they sold out of in two months!) and its with their valuable feedback we’ve been able to develop our new Keepsake Size. Brad Jones shared his thoughts on our kits, and we couldn’t agree more!

“We need to embrace scattering in our cemeteries. We see families coming from everywhere because we allow scatterings...They add acceptance.”

“People are looking for different options. For some it’s economic, for some it’s what they’ve always wanted. When cemeteries accept this, we become relevant again and people don’t go and throw remains just anywhere.”

💭 We spoke with J-P Narbonne, manager of cemetery services at about their Infinity Garden, installed this summer to compliment their new columbaria and cremation area.
