Submit your email and we will guide you through your journey of creating and learning human ashes into a tree as the best legacy for your family and loved ones
“Welcome, we are here to guide you through the process of tree burial and infusing human ashes into memorial trees in Australia that celebrate life and turn grief into connection”
-Luke Roberts Founder Of Mornington Green
What Is A Living Legacy Tree?
A Legacy Tree is a tree planted in soil that has been infused with the treated ashes of a deceased person or pet. The ashes are treated to neutralise their pH and salt levels – known to cause trees harm.* Instead, the ashes become an incredible nutrient for growing trees, transforming death into life by means of nature.
So How Does Human Ashes Into A Tree Works?
Your ashes are scientifically treated to create living molecules and are then placed beneath a private tree in a peaceful forest where your loved ones can come and visit you all year round.
The Process Of Living Legacy Tree Burial In Australia
Learn step by step on how you can create A Living Legacy Tree
Step 1: Start Or Pre Plan Your Tree Burial
Whether you’re thinking ahead or dealing with a recent loss, we’re here to help:
- Discuss your needs, wishes and preferences with our caring team.
- Learn more with us about the benefits of planning in advance, including potential cost savings and comparisons with traditional burials and other natural burials.
- You can infuse one ash or multiple ashes of your family and pet in the same family tree.
Step 2: Choose Your Living Legacy Tree
Select a tree that holds meaning for you and your loved one:
- We offer a variety of tree species, each with its own special characteristics. Even the amount of carbon sequestrated and the benefits of its leaves.
- Our team can help you find a tree that best represents your loved one or your family’s character and life’s story.
- From mighty oaks to delicate cherry blossoms, we have trees to suit every preference.
Step 3: Transform Ashes Into Life
Untreated ashes have a pH level the same as bleach that is harmful for soil and plants. Our innovative process turns ashes into nutrients that the soil and trees love:
- We use a special, scientifically developed Living Legacy Liquid to treat the ashes.
- This process changes the ashes into nutrients that seedlings can use to grow, like potassium and nitrogen.
- Your loved ones and pets become part of new life, as a tree growing strong and healthy.
Step 4: Put All Your Family and Pets to Rest in One Living Legacy Tree
Create a shared resting place for your entire family:
- Combine ashes from multiple family members and pets into a single tree.
- Keep and live on with your loved ones together in one special place.
- Create a central place for remembrance that grows stronger with each addition of ashes.
- Each tree has its own personalised plaque.
Step 5: Tree Ceremony and Life Celebration
We make the tree planting a meaningful experience for you, your family, and your closed ones:
- We offer a tailored tree ceremony where the ashes are treated.
- Also included is a life celebration, which is a time to share memories, reflect and continue the connection with your loved one.
- You’re welcome to be involved in the planning of both the ceremony and celebration of life.
