Life Forest is a Non-Profit Conservation Cemetery

We hold a profound belief that connecting with nature is not just an experience but also a source of healing. Life Forest is not a traditional cemetery—it's a sanctuary for celebrating life and eternal rest. 
As leaders in our field, we set the standard for eco-friendly practices in conservation burials, providing recorded GPS-mapped deeded rights to each burial plot, and offering legal protection under cemetery law.

 

    An Environmentally Friendly, More Affordable, and Inclusive Alternative to Traditional Burial

Life Forest provides burial plots for composted or cremated remains, and replaces headstones with trees. Grow a beautiful living memorial for your loved one within a peaceful vibrant forest.
