Take a Virtual Walk Through Life Forest

Rooted in Love, Remembered in Life

Life Forest is for those who want their legacy, or that of someone they love, to live on in something real, rooted, and growing. It’s for people who believe death doesn’t have to mean concrete and cold stones, but can instead be a quiet return to nature.

Life Forest Mission Statement

At Life Forest we believe a positive surrounding is the foundation of healing and sustaining emotional connection to those who have passed.  That is why we have created a space that promotes health, healing and happiness. We do this by harnessing the energy of plants and reconnecting to our forests.Today, as a pioneer in the burial process we are committed to protecting land from deforestation and maintaining the tradition of burial and perpetual care.

Credo

Our first responsibility is to families, environmental protection, and record keeping. In meeting these needs everything we do is approached with balancing the cause and effect of burial and environmental sustainability.

You choose a symbol of life, love, and memory. Options include trees, flowers and more.
Ashes are buried, blending gently into the forest soil.
Your memorial is protected and mapped forever, so loved ones can always return, remember, and reflect.

100s of Grateful Families

Life Forest has been so amazing. After I lost my daughter I wanted her to have a tree. Something people can remember her by and visit. My son found Life Forest and contacted them that night. The owners are so great and work with you every step of the process. I would recommend life Forest to EVERYONE wanting to do something special for their loved ones

Hear What They Say About Life Forest

What a beautiful and serene setting, Life Forest seems like a perfect resting place.   Having little experience with such services I was very pleased to find the team at Life Forest to be informative,  responsive and very compassionate.    It's truly unique place, and a far better solution than any traditional cemetery.

- Benjamin Katz

One year ago, We laid my father to rest at Life Forest, and I remain deeply grateful for the experience. The staff was incredibly kind and compassionate, guiding us through a difficult time with professionalism and care. The surroundings were stunning—peaceful, serene, and beautifully designed. Everything was thoughtfully organized, allowing us to focus on saying goodbye in a calm and meaningful way. Life Forest is more than a burial site; it’s a tranquil and sacred place that continues to bring comfort to my family and me.

- Holli Engard

Life Forest is such a wonderfully unique and peaceful place to visit loved ones. My aunt's dogwood tree truly symbolizes the beautiful person that she was. It makes my heart happy!
