TREE OF LIFE

tree of life

What is Tree of Life Cremains Burial?

Planting a tree to honor your loved one’s memory is a beautiful way to “give back” to the environment while establishing a living memorial that you can visit. This simple and beautiful method provides your loved one a way to truly return to nature after passing. Nothing separates them from the environment. Their cremains are mixed directly into the soil and laid to eternal rest with a tree or shrub planted above them as a living memorial.


Instead of focusing on death, this service honors the memory of a departed loved one by emphasizing life. Tree of Life creates a living legacy and tribute to someone who has died, benefiting the earth and environment, as well as present and future generations.
