Can I Make Your Garden Grow?

Ever feel like you get treated like dirt in life? Well, now you can have the same experience in death. Maryland is now the nation’s capital of human composting. “Human composting is a roughly month-long process that turns humans into nutrient rich dirt using bacteria, fungi and mulch. In the end, about three hundred pounds of soil is left over. Bones are pulverized and added to the soil and then some or all of it is given back to the family or placed in land conservation projects to help plants grow.” (I knew I’d eventually develop a green thumb.)
