Announcing our Harmony Fund for memorial trees

Reflection Park is a non-profit organization dedicated to offering natural burials that honor the cycle of life. As part of our ongoing tree-planting strategy, we are pleased to announce our Harmony Fund for Memorial Trees. This fund will support the planting of numerous trees within burial sections and throughout other parts of the Park where each tree is accompanied by a small plaque commemorating the memory of someone special identified by the donor. As a result, these trees will not only enhance the natural beauty of Reflection Park but will also serve as living memorials.

Reflection Park’s memorial trees honor the memories of those who are no longer with us, like Baby Owen. Though his time on Earth was short, his mother says, “even in pregnancy, he was stubborn and funny and dramatic and sweet, and we wish the world had gotten to meet him. We love and miss him very much.”

Families who choose to plant memorial trees can see the legacy of their loved one continue as these trees contribute to the landscape and biodiversity of Reflection Park.

Every contribution, no matter the size, plays a vital role in supporting Reflection Park’s mission. We will acknowledge each generous tax-deductible donation in our communications, celebrating the spirit of giving that helps sustain our efforts.

We also continue to welcome donations to our two other charitable funds: the Equity Fund for Burial Assistance, which helps cover the cost of natural burial at Reflection Park for families in financial need, and the Care Fund for General Operations to support ongoing operational needs. All donations help lower our operating costs to make natural burial more affordable and accessible.
