I am not a scientist, but wouldn't composting a human body and using the compost in a garden carry a disease risk of one sort or another? To each their own I guess, but it certainly would not be something I would want done with my remains, all though a pumpkin patch might benefit from composting me. I am so full of it that a person could probably grow a pumpkin on top of my remains that would have to be lifted with a fork lift. LOL

I just can't imagine wanting anyone I loved being allowed to rot down, mixed with wood chips or other organic waste and ultimately dumped in the veggie garden and tilled in with a rototiller.

Clipper check this out right in your own backyard!!!

The University of Tennessee Anthropological Research Facility, better known as the Body Farm and sometimes seen as the Forensic Anthropology Facility, was conceived in 1971 and established in 1972 by anthropologist William M. Bass as the first facility for the study of decomposition of human remains.

I've always wanted to be buried beneath an apple tree.

I have seen several documentaries and interviews with University of Tennessee professors connected to the program PB. Very interesting and the value of the research to the world of forensics is far reaching.

Has to be a rather odiferous place to work on a hot July day.

I was thinking cremation but I do not like fire. Oh it burns and hurts!!! That strong alkaline method reminds me of draino! I kind of like this method. I am also on the positive of the body farm except after reviewing the in's and out's I just would not like hanging in a tree waiting for my legs and arms to fall of oh and my head!!!!!! BOUNCE now that hurt!!!!!
