memorial tree planted in california

Details

Tree dedications are a heartfelt way to honor someone who has passed, creating a lasting tribute through the planting of a tree in a U.S. National Forest in the state of California. Each planting location is carefully selected based on where reforestation is most urgently needed, often in areas recovering from wildfire damage. With this thoughtful gift, the recipient will receive access to an online page where they can view photos and the planting location. The name of the person being remembered is also added to our Tree Gift Registry as a lasting honor.

When you choose a California Memorial Tree Gift to send your sympathy, the recipient will receive a personalized certificate to commemorate the tree planting. This full-color certificate will feature your name, the year, and your heartfelt memorial message. For an additional fee, we can frame the certificate in a black frame made from eco-friendly recycled wood. A matching full-color card will be included to explain the gift, and your personal message will be printed insideIf you need help crafting your message, feel free to check our Sympathy Message Ideas for inspiration.

This meaningful gift can be sent no matter where the recipient lives. We can ship it directly to them on your behalf, and most orders are processed within 1 to 3 business days. If needed, you can request 2 to 4 day priority shipping for faster delivery. Standard U.S. shipping via First Class Mail is always free. If you’d rather give the gift in person or order it in memory of your own loved one, we’re happy to send the package directly to you—just enter your own address during checkout.

Offering your condolences with a tree gift is a beautiful way to both comfort someone during a difficult time and support forest restoration. Plant a memorial tree in California today and help turn grief into growth, honoring a life by giving back to nature.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, you can! Each California Memorial Tree Gift includes a personalized certificate. You can add the recipient's name, a special message, and the year of the memorial. For an additional charge, we can frame the certificate in eco-friendly recycled wood.

Absolutely! You can add additional trees to your California Memorial Tree Gift for a small fee. If you add 20 or more trees, you'll receive a discounted rate. This is a wonderful way to create a lasting tribute and help restore a forest in need.

We work with the U.S. Forest Service to choose the areas most in need of our trees. Our current planting location is Sequoia National Forest.

Our mission here at Trees for a Change is to provide thoughtful, meaningful gifts that live on to restore fire devastated forest lands. It would be nice if we could offer more choice in planting areas, but our priority is planting trees where they are needed most.

We hope you agree that when it comes to giving a gift that is about LIFE, a gift that truly honors someone, putting the trees where that life will make the biggest difference is the best thing we could possibly do.

We estimate about how many trees we'll need to plant for each calendar year, then the trees are planted that year in the early summer (this is the best time for survival.) We move our planting project to a new location once we've dedicated all the trees we planted that year. We do things this way so folks who receive tree gifts in the last half of the year don't have to wait all the way until the following summer to find out about their trees. Rest assured, each and every tree gift given through Trees for a Change has a baby tree or trees accounted for in the designated planting location.

The card that accompanies the tree gift has information printed on the inside left. This info explains the gift and directs the recipient to the "Find Trees" feature on the website.

Visit our Find Trees page in the top menu bar and you can search for trees by NAME or DATE.

We'll automatically send you occasional tree update emails in coming years. If you don't want them, you can unsubscribe anytime.
