"Benjamin just got so excited to see his dad's tree. He said, "wow look it's got a tall part now" and he's actually looking forward to visiting for Father's Day which as we all know in a traditional cemetery atmosphere that wouldn't be the case... so thank you for providing a place the boys actually want to visit."

About Life Forest®:
Life Forest is a conservation burial ground where trees are planted to memorialize loved ones and allows you to be buried with your pets. Life Forest believes that a compassionate burial experience, and the planting of a tree, fosters an environment of healing after loss. The burial ground is surrounded by 80 acres of conservation land where families and friends of loved ones can hike numerous trails and swim in nearby creeks.
Life Forest fosters a community of healing, hosting free acoustical concerts, shared memorial gardens, and educational opportunities for those in the environmental science and deathcare industries. Because the trees act as burial monuments, the memorial trees are protected under cemetery law and legally recorded with burial plot GPS data to the Life Forest Deed.
