CREMATION BURIAL OPTIONS AT MICHIGAN MEMORIAL PARK:
Be A Tree
Be-A-Tree Cremation Burial
The Be-A-Tree cremation burial option at Michigan Memorial Park offers a beautiful and environmentally mindful way to create a living memorial for your loved one.
With this option, cremated remains are placed in a biodegradable urn and buried beneath a young tree. As the tree grows, it becomes a lasting tribute—transforming remembrance into new life.
Be-A-Tree plots are located within one of the 36 designated Be-A-Tree areas throughout Michigan Memorial’s 290-acre park.
Each biodegradable urn may hold the cremated remains of up to two individuals, allowing families to share a single memorial tree if they wish.
A memorial plaque is included and placed on the tree to honor and identify your loved one without harming the tree itself.
The young trees selected for these memorials are well-suited to Michigan’s climate and carefully chosen to complement the natural landscape of the park. Michigan Memorial’s grounds team provides ongoing care to each tree.
Families are welcome to gather beneath the tree to reflect, remember, and feel connected both to their loved one and to the natural beauty surrounding them.
For pricing and additional details, please contact a Michigan Memorial Park Representative, who can help guide you through the Be-A-Tree memorial options available.
