Pre-plan or Planning for Someone Else?
Choose to be part of your own tree-planting day now, or considering a memorial tree for the ashes of loved ones – the perfect opportunity to rest your loved ones ashes.
Can I pre plan my funeral by purchasing my tree now?
Yes, many of our 500+ forest families are pre planters, who delight in watching their tree grow. They often visit with their families to enjoy a picnics in the forest.
Do I get a certificate to put with my will?
Yes, every tree is issued a unique identification number, which you will find laser cut into your tree marker. This number tells us exactly where your tree is located in all of Australia. Now you can rest knowing your wishes are known!
Will my memorial be protected?
Your tree is protected by a conservation covenant (policed by the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions). Your tree can never be cut down! And if your tree dies, we simply replace it.
I have pet ashes. Can my fur babies have
a memorial in the forest?
YES, our families love that their pets ashes and memorial can be placed with their tree.
Will my family have to pay again?
No, while a grave needs constant maintenance, the forest you are helping to enhance will naturally bloom! This means, unlike a cemetery, in 25 years your family will not have to pay more to keep your tree.
Will my memorial be looked after?
Wellington Dam Legacy Forest is managed by Legacy Conservation Forest, a registered public charity with a board of directors. We have a forest manager looking after the trees, also staff and volunteers to look after you, and your family, when hugs are needed the most.
You can meet us, and our forest families, at one of our Open Days or Busy Bees through out the year. Or simply book yourself in for a forest tour.e.
