Traditional cemeteries in Newark or New Jersey, serve the local community. EcoEternity Forest is not another traditional forest cemetery. EcoEternity serves people that are attached to the outdoors, forests and nature in general.

It is our goal to establish EcoEternity Forests in healthy, beautiful forests throughout the United States. Our green burial forests are already established in North Carolina, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and soon in New Jersey and New York State.

Most people procrastinate the preplanning of their funeral or memorial service. However, preplanning your funeral or memorial service can save your family time and expense, and to help them make wise and informed choices that reflect your personal wishes. Here are some reasons for preplanning your funeral and selecting a tree:

• Preplanning your funeral provides your family with information, guidance, and ideas about what is important to you and should be included in your service.
• Preplanning your funeral prevents your loved ones from making possibly costly choices that don't reflect your own desires.
• Preplanning your funeral provides clear outlines of your wishes which will prevent the occurrence of guilt, stress, and indecision on the part of your loved ones while they are planning your service.
• Preplanning your funeral eases the burden on your family of planning every aspect of your service at a time that is bound to be extremely emotional and difficult for them.
• Preplanning your funeral give you the time and resources to thoughtfully consider how you would like to be remembered.

The EcoEternity preplanning usually starts by personally visiting our forest. One of our naturists will guide you and help you select your specific tree. We encourage you to take your family members and friends along in order to come up with a consensus decision about your final resting place. After you selected your tree we encourage you to write down your preferences about your funeral service.
