Celebrate your loved one’s life with a memorial tree, a touching and beautiful gift appropriate for every family. Memorial trees are living tributes that comfort families, offering a legacy of sustainability and hope for future generations.

Plant a Beautiful, Living Memorial

Memorial trees are a living, breathing legacy that grows year after year. They offer a lasting tribute that grows and flourishes, symbolizing life and renewal. By planting trees, you also help combat climate change, restore habitats, and support wildlife. Memorial trees are a heartfelt and respectful way to commemorate a family member, friend, colleague, or anyone who appreciated the beauty of nature. All Memorial Store trees are planted through American Forests, the oldest nonprofit conservation organization in the nation.

Where We Plant Memorial Trees

Your memorial tree will be planted on public land in a national or state forest. American Forests conserves and restores North American forests throughout the United States and in parts of Canada and Mexico. Only native trees to the region will be planted, generally in the spring or autumn, based on guidance from the U.S. Forest Service. Planting a tree in someone’s memory is a touching tribute that also helps restore forests where wildfires or deforestation have depleted this vital natural resource.
