Grave Gardens

Grave Gardens Here at Grave Gardens, my purpose is to help you honour and remember your loved ones through flowers and plants.

Whether that be by planting a garden at your loved one’s grave, creating a grief garden in your own backyard or memorializing those you’ve lost through municipal tree planting, I’m here to make it all happen!

I am a Certified Life Celebrant and would be honored to help you plan and commemorate your loved one through a Celebration of Life. I can also work with you to plan your own Celebration of Life, or what is now becoming more and more favorable; living funerals.

In addition to planting gardens, I also offer a flower bouquet or wreath delivery service for those who either live too far away from the gravesite or for those who can’t physically travel to a cemetery. On birthdays, anniversaries, mother’s & father’s days or any special events, I can deliver flowers or wreaths to your loved ones grave and say a few words of your choosing.

Delivery starts at $25 + the cost of the bouquet or wreath.

Don’t have a backyard or balcony for a Memory Garden? Indoor Memorials are living tributes for your loved ones that you can enjoy year round, and take with you any time. I’ll create a living plantscape using beautiful containers and objects that represent whoever you’ve lost for a permanent, portable mini Memory Garden.

Let’s talk about the process! My services are completely customized, so each scenario is going to be a little different. We’ll start with a quick phone where I’ll ask for details about your loved one, as well as what you may already have in mind for the project. From there I’ll come out for a site visit, then provide some initial design concepts that we can discuss and tweak together as needed. Once the concepts and budget are approved, I will get planting!

All loss is difficult, but the loss of a pet is a different kind of pain. Many statistics show that the loss of a beloved cat or dog can be just as devastating as the loss of a person close to us. Allow me to create a lovely memorial for your pet, incorporating elements of their personality through plants, plaques, sculpture and personalized step stones.

A Memory Garden is a great choice, either for those whose loved ones were cremated, or for those who want a reminder of the ones they’ve lost right in their own backyard or balcony. This can range from a single plant, to a cluster, to an entire wildflower garden. We’ll work together to choose plants that represent your person, as well as incorporating any sculpture, statues or plaques if you so choose. We can also integrate ashes with the soil, so that your loved one is truly a part of every leaf and bloom.

Grief is a garden. If left alone, it will continue to grow wild, encroaching on pathways, trampleing what was once there. Grief, like a garden, must be tended and cared for. Removing unwanted vegetation, pruning, fertilizing, encouraging despite the overwhelming task list. Storms will come and frost will hit. Plants will die making room for new additions. Grief will loom, a consistent reminder of the work needed every day, but you’ll see that even the smallest of tasks make a difference to help the garden to thrive.

Grief is a garden, not to be neglected and forgotten. And so is life.
