Hello World
Legacy Tree
A memorial tree in Western Australia is a tree planted in soil that has been infused with the treated ashes of a deceased person or pet. The ashes are treated using the patented Living Legacy liquid to neutralize their pH and salt levels – which are otherwise harmful to trees.
Here we will explain more what is a memorial tree in Western Australia so you can transform the ashes of your loved ones into Living Legacy Trees that create lasting connections.
Be remembered together as one — connected always through a living tree.
A Living Legacy Tree is a tree planted in soil that has been infused with the treated ashes of a deceased person or pet. The ashes are treated using the patented Living Legacy liquid to neutralize their pH and salt levels – which are otherwise harmful to trees.* Through this process, the ashes become a powerful nutrient source that supports the growth of trees, turning loss into new life through nature.
Our partner, Living Legacy, has perfected the treatment of ashes to create living molecules, enabling a person’s energy to live on through a tree while supporting its healthy growth—contributing to the regeneration of forests. Industry leaders including the Greater Metropolitan Cemeteries Trust (GMCT), Northern Cemeteries in NSW, City of Brisbane, and Tobin Brothers have all adopted Living Legacy as the best-practice standard for a sustainable memorial.
Select a tree that reflects your loved one's spirit.
Our patented liquid and process transforms ashes into life-giving tree nutrients such as nitrogen and potassium.
You can plant by your own Living Legacy Tree of your loved one with a beautiful tailored ceremony.
Take time to connect with nature and reflect in the serene forest surroundings, where your loved one’s Legacy Tree grows strong. Visit often to witness its quiet beauty and enduring presence—offering a place of remembrance and peace for generations to come.
Honoring life through nature, a memorial tree is more than a resting place—it’s a living legacy that grows with time, supports wildlife, and stands tall for generations to come.
Really peaceful place to bury your loved ones ashes under a tree. They can live on as a part of a native tree and generations of family and friends that were in their lives have a perfect place to visit and just be with their thoughts and memories.
Today we shared a heartfelt planting day with Deborah Bastian, Debby, and Chantelle—a beautiful reminder of why we do what we do: creating living legacies, honoring loved ones, and giving back to nature, all within the peaceful embrace of Wellington Dam Legacy Forest. Thank you, Deborah, for letting us be part of such a meaningful journey.
