What is a forest memorial?

How can we help?

Please complete the form fields below and a customer care team member will be in touch shortly.

A forest memorial is a private, personal ceremony in which the ashes are mixed with soil and placed at the base of the tree, continuing the life cycle of the forest. Our team will be available to assist in scheduling, planning, and facilitating of each forest memorial. You will be welcome to bring an officiant or personalize the forest memorial if you wish.

Forest memorials can be scheduled by contacting Customer Care and connecting with a Memorial Specialist. Memorial planning usually takes about a month. In some forests, we have seasonal dependencies that restrict the times of year we can conduct a memorial. Trees are required to be fully paid off before a memorial can be scheduled. A copy of each decedent’s death certificate is required upon scheduling.

If you get stuck or have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to reach out. You can call or text us at 628-237-3922 or email us at care@betterplaceforests.org.
