Memorial Trees are a moving and beneficial way to honor someone living or dead.  They are a living remembrance of a loved one or the celebration of a special event such as a birth.  Trees provide a sense of belonging to the community plus beauty, shade, oxygen, habitat and food for animals, and many environmental benefits.

The Memorial Tree Program is a partnership of the Fall River Garden Club, the Fall River Street Tree Planting Program, and the City of Fall River.  The Program is seen as an opportunity to help rebuild our urban forest by the donations of family and friends and to have the option of viewing that donation right here in Fall River.

Trees will be planted in spring and fall.  April 1st is the deadline for submitting a request for spring planting.  Special ceremonies can be held when the trees are planted.  The city will not place plaques or markers to identify memorial trees but a written request for a ground level marker may be obtained from the Park Dept.  Placement of the marker will be the responsibility of the family.

The Program is not responsible for replacement of trees that do not survive.
