The science & environment

Living Legacy Soil Science

Living Legacy Soil science, scientifically-proven process infuses cremated ashes into the tree, transforming them into essential micronutrients that nourish and help it grow. Instead of remaining static, the ashes become a part of the tree, creating a lasting, living connection. This process allows you to literally become one with nature, as your life continues through the growth and vitality of the tree, contributing to a sustainable ecosystem for generations to come.

Native Wildlife

Rest among the rich fauna of Wellington Forest. Planting a Living Legacy Tree rebuilds the habitat and helps to protect the beautiful endangered species endemic to the region, such as the quokka and Carnaby’s black cockato.

Very peaceful place for the burial of my grandfather Jimmy. The owners have great compassion and understanding of family bonds, knowing you by name, not just a transaction.

My husband and I have a tree here. Visited recently and the sunlight filtering through was beautiful. There's a kiosk nearby and bush camps if you want to make a weekend of it.
