Memorial Tree Program

Throughout history, people have planted trees to honor deceased or living family and friends, and to commemorate a special occasion. These living, graceful legacies not only honor the departed, they bring joy to those who live, work and play under their branches.

The New Jersey Tree Foundation’s Memorial Tree Program makes it easy to continue this spirit of remembrance and generosity. The cost of planting a Memorial Tree is $600.00. This contribution provides for the purchase, transportation, planting and continued care of a shade tree in Liberty State Park's Grove of Remembrance in Jersey City.

An acknowledgment, reflecting your donation commemorating your loved one, along with a photo of the tree and map with directions to the tree, will be sent to the donor or requested third party.
