Spread ashes legally in
nature near Martinez
Want to return your loved one’s ashes to nature? Local options are limited. Ash spreading at nearby lakes and beaches is prohibited, and while regional parks may allow it, they require paperwork, permits, and advance planning.
Everis offers legal ash spreading in nature at dedicated Memorial Forests near Martinez—including Point Arena and Santa Cruz. Unlike DIY spreading, you get:
Every Memorial Forest is legally conserved and can never be developed.
Your memorial grows and evolves with the seasons, reflecting the cycle of life.
Unlike scattering ashes, you have a marked, recorded location to visit in perpetuity.
Resting place in nature
Your Memorial Forest
awaits: visit now, rest later
Unlike traditional Martinez burial plots, your Everis package includes a resting place in a Spreading Grove in a protected Memorial Forest and a Nature Memorial ceremony.
Choose your forest location; a place of life and beauty that you can enjoy today.
