TerraCon 2026

TerraCon 2026 is a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing the terramation (body composting) industry in the United States. Based in Tacoma, Washington, we host an annual conference that brings together professionals, enthusiasts, and policymakers to explore the science, ethics, and future of this innovative approach to death care. We provide a platform for legal trailblazers, scientific experts, and industry leaders to share insights and drive progress. Our conference focuses on NOR innovation, legislative developments, and the personal stories shaping this transformative movement. TerraCon 2026 is committed to shaping a more sustainable and compassionate future for death care.

We offer a unique experience for attendees, including exclusive tours of the Return Home facility, engaging panel discussions, and networking opportunities. Our events foster collaboration and knowledge sharing, accelerating the adoption of terramation practices across the country. Terramation is rapidly gaining traction as a viable and environmentally responsible alternative to traditional burial and cremation.

TerraCon 2026 plays a vital role in educating the public, influencing policy, and supporting the growth of the terramation industry. We are a driving force in promoting a future where human remains are returned to the earth in a natural and dignified manner.
