GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo. (PRWEB) July 17, 2018 -- The Living Urn, America’s leading bio urn and planting system designed to grow a memory tree, is excited to announce the launch of The Irish Living Urn. The Irish Living Urn consists of The Living Urn’s proprietary bio urn and planting system and incorporates Handful of Home’s earth from Ireland, giving Irish American families the ability to have a tree memorial of a loved one that incorporates the earth of their homeland.
Mark Brewer, President of The Living Urn commented, “We’re excited to partner with Handful of Home and jointly launch The Irish Living Urn. There are over 34 million Irish Americans in the U.S. and more and more are choosing cremation over burial. They’re looking for unique, uplifting memorials and The Irish Living Urn provides them a beautiful option that gives them the ability to grow an enduring tree memorial with the cremated remains of their loved one and the soil from the land of their ancestors.”
Aifric O Byrne, President of Handful of Home commented, “We’ve been focused on the burial market and are excited to enter into the cremation market with The Living Urn. We believe The Irish Living Urn is a beautiful option for Irish Americans looking for an uplifting memorial. Incorporating the earth of Ireland in a celebration of life is an ancient tradition and allows families to lay their loved one to rest and honor their cultural roots. With The Irish Living Urn, we’re now taking it a step further by incorporating the earth from Ireland in a tree planting and memorial.”
Each Irish Living Urn comes with The Living Urn’s proprietary bio urn made from recycled plant materials, Handful of Home Ceremonial Canister containing 100% pure Irish earth, RootProtect™, a natural soil additive that serves to counter certain properties of cremated remains that can make the growing environment harsh, aged wood chips, and comes packaged in an attractive eco-friendly bamboo cylinder. Families can also choose from over 20 tree and shrub options to be planted with the Irish Living Urn.
