"This Father’s Day, I’m at peace knowing where my dad rests."

"I don’t like visiting headstones. They feel cold. But the forest felt peaceful, and warm. He's not alone in the dark. He’s part of something bigger, still growing, still giving back.

Since I was a little girl, I wanted to be a redwood tree. This was a way to go back to my roots.”

Nancy B., Santa Cruz Memorial Forest

This Father’s Day, we honor dads, fathers, and father figures.
If this message reaches you during a time of grief or loss, please accept our sincere condolences.

With its striking split trunk and towering height, it's unique and unforgettable. See more of Ponderosa Pine #450 on our website along with other trees available in our Flagstaff forest on our website here. https://buff.ly/uwZy1t8

This Memorial Day, we pause to honor those who served, and those we carry with us in memory.

At Better Place Forests, we believe nature offers more than beauty. It offers space to reflect, heal, and feel connected to the ones we love.

We invite you to share who you’re remembering today in the comments. Let their name be spoken, and their story honored.

How would you spend your time at your Memorial Tree?
Christine R. at our Point Arena Memorial Forest shared what it’s like to spend time at her husband’s Memorial Tree:

“Every visit brings a sense of peace. We sit by his tree, listen to the breeze and birdsong, and let the forest quiet the noise of everyday life. Even the grandkids join us. They love looking for the banana slugs.”

Sometimes the most healing moments are the quietest ones.🤎 Let us know what you love to do when you visit your Memorial Tree. We'd love to hear from you.

You’ll often find Mary Jo at her husband’s Memorial Tree with a crochet hook in hand, sitting in his old lawn chair.

She talks to him, people-watches, and takes in the peace of the forest, just like he would’ve wanted.
