“My wife and I recently purchased trees in memory of four different individuals who had passed over the last six months. The response of gratitude we received from their families was overwhelming. All thought the idea was wonderful. One individual even purchased five more trees on behalf of her siblings. Flowers are beautiful and will always be a part of funerals, but we really like the idea of a much longer term way of remembering and honoring someone special, while providing benefits to our environment for decades to come. Thank you for this tremendous opportunity!”
“We struggled with an appropriate gift for our mother after losing her husband so close to Christmas. This was an incredible way to honor his memory while supporting a cause near and dear to her heart. Thank you for the opportunity to make a lasting difference in the name of one we hold so dear!”
“I’ve planted trees on various properties in memory of our fur-kids since I was a teen. Our first home has a 35 yr old white pine that is HUGE, in memory of our first cat. It is a memorial to a beloved being. It is thriving & makes me smile when I see how majestic it is in the current owner’s yard.
Losing two fur-kids was devastating this year for our friends & for me. I wanted to honor Poe & Penny without imposing on my friends’ yard. The memorial grove gift was unique & personal. The certificate speaks to how in sorrow, there is life. There is proof they lived & were loved.
Restoring a forest is a gift for the future. We know there are five trees that will outlive us and have an impact.
Our friends have told their friends (Poe & Penny had MANY aunts & uncles) about the grove. Trees For A Change is an option that we hope spreads in our extended family. I am so glad I happened upon the website. It was the perfect way to show our love & celebrate lives well lived.”
“The perfect way to honor a loved one. The framed certificate is beautiful and comforts the family knowing that life continues to grow in loving memory and in an ecologically saving way.”
“We loved the idea of a gift of trees. The order was easy to place and the certificate was promptly made and sent. Will do this in the future for sure!”
“Planting memorial trees for family & friends we have lost is very healing for our souls & for our earth. We feel their spirit everywhere. Being able to watch the trees grow through online access is an added plus. Thank you, Kim ,for all your help.”
