Join Be a Tree Cremation and The Park People for a community grief gathering & memorial tree planting event at GreenWay Park on Saturday, October 3rd at 9 am.
Whether you lost someone this year or many years ago, we invite you and your community to join us in planting a grove of memorial trees as a living legacy for the loved ones you carry with you. Our grief wants to be shared, witnessed, moved, and integrated into the natural world, and this fall we have a chance to grow something beautiful together.
All of the funds we raise will support The Park People’s mission of working with communities to plant trees and improve parks for a healthier, more resilient future for Denver. Since 1969, this Denver nonprofit has planted over 70,000 trees and improved more than 50 parks. Their ongoing work supports healthy urban ecosystems, reforests the Denver area, and engages community members in tree stewardship. Donating to the Park People is one way for your loved one to live on through nature, enshrining an eco-conscious legacy.
There are two ways to get involved in this community event:
Join us! If you would like to join us for this community Grief Gathering and get your hands dirty planting trees with us, please contribute a suggested donation of a minimum $50 per person, and then register.
