Our Living Memorial® program, in which the significance of a unique life is symbolized with the planting of a tree, is a special way to honor the memory of a loved one.
Touching the Lives of Families
With each seedling planted, comfort can be found in knowing that as one life ends, another is just beginning.
Arranged through Your Funeral Home
Upon the purchase a qualifying Batesville product and at the request of your funeral home, Batesville makes a donation for a tree seedling to be planted in a national forest or woodland.
Planted in Partnership
In partnership with the U.S. Forest Service, the Canadian Institute of Forestry and other international forestry organizations, these seedlings help to re-establish woodlands destroyed by forest fires, blight and other natural disasters.
Since 1976
Since the program’s inception nearly 50 years ago, Batesville has planted more than 14.5 million trees in honor of loved ones at no additional cost to their families.
A Living Memorial
Helping become more than a living, majestic memorial to your loved one. They also help provide shelter for wildlife and create a cleaner, more sustainable world for future generations.
