It was an honor to help Luke Perry with his final wishes. https://dlisted.com/2019/04/18/luke-perry-was-reportedly-buried-in-a-mushroom-suit/?fbclid=IwAR0qIWdqCRQlL3cE7NjSEDfnI1Se7qWNK4Ts1dt_4G3MFm8WbDqh8gyhng8

It seems like everybody who ever met Luke Perry agrees that he was one of the good ones. Earlier this year when he died of a massive stroke at the age of 52, the outpouring of love for Luke was palpable. He was cited as a wonderful mentor and friend by many people who knew him. So it’s not surpris...

Hi Everyone! Dennis White (our first adopter! and subject of the film "Suiting Dennis") has been nominated for a Hard Hat Hero Award by his son Marshall White! Let's make Dennis a Hard Hat Hero! Vote here...

My hard hat hero is my father, Dennis White. He started his own construction company (the one I now run) over 40 years ago and worked tirelessly to provide for our family, give back to our community, and give our clients the best quality possible. He taught me the virtues of hard work, fairness, gen...

We co-authored an article last month in Groomer to Groomer Magazine about empowering pet groomers to talk to their clients about aging and pet loss! Groomers often times see pets more regularly than veterinarians, and they're pretty attached to their furry companions as well.

If you're a pet owner, there's a great graphic in here with info on planning ahead for senior pets. Please share with your family and friends!

Thanks Lara Gordon Latshaw and Gordon's Grooming for collaborating with The Forever Spot by Coeio

I spent the first ten years of my grooming career working for veterinarians. Because of this I had the unique opportunity of caring for dying pets and grieving customers. There were times when clients couldn’t manage being with their pet during euthanasia and since I was close with their pet, I woul...

How can mushrooms clear pollutants not only inside your body, but outside in the area you choose to be buried?

This 1-minute video is an oldie but a goodie:

This video explores how planting fungi on the borders of parking lots helps mitigate non-point-source water pollution caused by leaking vehicles. After mulching an area at the lower end of the Bernheim Forest parking lot, staff members inoculated or planted the area with oyster mushrooms. Like other...

We are not promoting that people should or shouldn't make this decision. But regardless, it's food for thought! What do you think?

California's assisted su***de law just went into effect. My friend decided to put it to use — and gather her friends around her as she did so.

An excerpt of Sighs, a beautiful poem by Birago Diop:

Those who are dead are never gone:
They are there in the thickening shadow.
The dead are not under the earth:
They are in the tree that rustles,
They are in the wood that groans,
They are in the water that runs,
They are in the water that sleeps,
They are in the hut, they are in the crowd,
The dead are not dead.

Those who are dead are never gone,
They are in the breast of the woman,
They are in the child who is wailing
And in the firebrand that flames.
The dead are not under the earth:
They are in the fire that is dying,
They are in the grasses that weep,
They are in the whimpering rocks,
They are in the forest, they are in the house,
The dead are not dead.

Meet the Infinity Burial Suit.

If you have lost a pet before or have an aging pet, we would love to talk to you. We're offering new options and want more insight into the minds of pet owners.

Would be a ~15 minutes phone call and really help us continue greening goodbyes for our companion animals. Email [email protected] if you're open to volunteering!
