In memory
You can donate a tree or bench in memory of a loved one.
We’ll help you select a species of tree and a location for the tree to be planted. Trees are only planted in the spring and fall, weather permitting.
A standard tree is $1,117.85. An upgraded tree is $2,616.30.
You can donate a standard bench for $845.42.
You also have the option of donating an upgraded bench for $3,380.67
We’ll work with you to find the best location for your park bench, depending on the type you select.
If you’re donating on behalf of a group, we can provide individual donation receipts for each contribution over $20. You’ll need to provide the names and amounts of each contributor. If you don’t provide additional names, only one donation receipt will be issued.
If you’ve recently donated a tree or bench, you have the option to purchase a plaque.
When you purchase a plaque, you’ll receive one free plaque replacement due to vandalism or theft. Donation receipts are not issued for the purchase of a plaque.
Contact us to discuss the design, text, and installation.
