Evertrack 2026: New Verified Memorial Tree Planting Sites
Verified Memorial Trees in 2026: Expanding Our Impact Across North America
At A Living Tribute, we believe a memorial tree should be more than a symbolic gesture — it should be planted to create measurable impact, and you should be able to see that impact after the trees are in the ground. That’s why late last year we created our Evertrack Verified Memorial Trees program, working with trusted planting technology partners such as veritree to bring greater transparency, accountability, and tracking to memorial tree giving.
As we move into 2026, we’re proud to announce new and expanded Evertrack tree planting locations across the United States and Canada — giving families even more meaningful ways to honor loved ones while restoring forests in genuine need.
🌍 2025-2026 Evertrack Tree Planting Locations
California — Rim Fire Burn Area (Yosemite Region)
The Rim Fire severely impacted forests near Yosemite National Park. Through verified replanting efforts, native seedlings are helping restore damaged ecosystems, protect watersheds, and rebuild wildlife habitat in one of America’s most iconic landscapes.
Oregon — Fremont-Winema National Forest
Southern Oregon’s forests continue to recover from devastating wildfire impacts. Verified tree planting projects near Summer Lake focus on rebuilding resilient forest ecosystems, improving biodiversity, and restoring long-term forest health.
Michigan — Kirtland's Warbler Habitat Restoration
In Michigan's Roscommon State Forest Area, verified tree planting efforts are restoring harvested and degraded forest lands. These projects help ensure sustainable forest management, protect wildlife habitat, and support long-term ecological balance.
Florida — Florida State Forests, Longleaf Pine Restoration
Verified tree planting across Florida’s state forests supports the restoration of native ecosystems such as longleaf pine habitats, improves biodiversity, and strengthens environmental resilience in vulnerable landscapes.
🌿 New Verified Restoration Projects Across the Southeastern U.S.
In 2026, our memorial tree program will expand further across the US with four brand new Evertrack locations:
-
Georgia
-
Alabama
-
Mississippi
-
South Carolina
These projects focus on restoring forests impacted by severe storms, longleaf pine habitat loss, and land degradation. Through verified partnerships, these plantings support healthier ecosystems, improved soil stability, and long-term environmental recovery for the Southeast US.
More details on these new projects will be announced in our blog in the weeks and months to come.
🍁 Verified Reforestation Projects Across Canada
We’re also continuing our Verified Memorial Trees program across multiple provinces in Canada, including:
-
Alberta
-
British Columbia
-
Ontario
-
Manitoba
These projects support critical forest ecosystems that play an essential role in biodiversity, watershed protection, and global carbon storage. Verified tree planting efforts in these regions focus on restoring lands impacted by wildfire, environmental stress, and historical land use.
🌱 Supporting the Full Reforestation Process
Your memorial tree gifts, through our 2026 programs such as Evertrack and Forest Friends, supports more than just tree planting. It contributes to the full cycle of successful forest restoration, including:
-
Seed collection and nursery cultivation
-
Site preparation and ecological planning
-
Professional planting operations
-
Post-planting assessments and photography/video/mapping
-
Ongoing forest stewardship and monitoring
This holistic approach ensures trees are planted responsibly — and with the highest chance of long-term survival.
