Tree Legacy Program

A commemorative tree provides a lasting tribute to remember special people or special occasions.  Trees are a living gift which will add beauty to the Zoo and offer shelter, comfort and pleasure for years to come.  Give a gift that will last for generations; a gift that keeps on giving.

Commemorative Trees:

Commemorative trees can be selected or planted to honor many special occasions.

In celebration:

Honor such meaningful occasions as weddings, anniversaries, births, birthdays, christenings, communions, baptisms and bar/bat mitzvahs

In Commemoration:

Celebrate graduations, retirements and other personal or professional milestones and achievements

Memorialize the lives of departed family members, friends and pets

In Tribute:
