Details
Sending flowers is a traditional way to express sympathy, but sadly, floral arrangements fade quickly and often become just another item among many during a time of loss. While flowers are appreciated, they’re temporary—and many grieving families end up overwhelmed with them.
If you're seeking a more meaningful and lasting way to show you care, a Memorial Grove of trees planted in California offers a thoughtful alternative. For the same cost as a typical sympathy bouquet, you can dedicate five trees to be planted in a CA National Forest in need of restoration after wildfire damage. These trees are planted in honor of the person who has passed, and their name is recorded in our Tree Gift Registry as a tribute that lasts for generations.
A California Grove of trees is a living memorial—one that contributes to the environment and offers a lasting symbol of remembrance. Unlike many charitable donations, this is a gift that can be seen and visited. Recipients can view photos of the grove online, explore the exact forest location, and even plan a visit to the site if they wish to connect more deeply with the tribute.
With a Trees for a Change Memorial Grove, your gift will be clear and meaningful to the person receiving it. Each package includes a full-color card explaining the details of the tree planting, along with space for your personal message. We can print the message for you and send the gift directly to the recipient, or ship it to you if you’d prefer to deliver it yourself.
Also included is a personalized keepsake certificate featuring the name of the deceased, your name, and the date of the dedication. The certificate includes a special message and our logo, and it can be beautifully framed for display. When you upgrade your order to a grove of 10 trees using the drop-down menu, we’ll include a free black frame made from recycled wood. Framing is also available as an optional add-on for groves of fewer than 10 trees.
Whether the memorial gift is shipped directly to you or to the recipient, we offer free USPS Priority Mail delivery within 2–4 business days.
Honor a life in a truly lasting way and offer comfort through the healing power of nature. A Memorial Grove is a meaningful gift that celebrates life and helps restore our forests for future generations.
