Since 2015, as an expression of sympathy to the families we serve, Smith’s has been partnering with the Bruce Trail Conservancy by committing to the planting of memorial trees along the Bruce Trail as a lasting tribute to loved ones.
Every year, a unique indigenous tree is planted in the ‘Smith’s Memorial Grove’ that was established in 2016 along the Trail in both Burlington and Stoney Creek. These trees are symbolic of all the trees planted that year within this beautiful natural landscape, to honour and celebrate the lives of those we have served.
Every spring we are proud and honoured to host a ceremonial dedication of the memorial trees planted in these groves over the past year.
You are invited to join us and share in a brief but meaningful service, followed by refreshments and an optional hike along the trail.
