What We Do
Tree Memorial Program in Partnership with Hancock Whitney Bank.
Planting trees on someone’s behalf is a great way to honor someone – and since trees provide so many natural benefits, it is a gift that keeps on giving. A tree planted in someone's memory is a living tribute that benefits present and future generations, and is perhaps the most fitting memorial gift of all. Your gift of a Tree Dedication through the Land Trust for the Mississippi Coastal Plain ensures that a tree will be planted within the lower six counties of Mississippi. If the tree planting is a gift, we will stamp and mail a personalized card (with your return address on the envelope) to the recipient for you. Trees are planted as saplings once a year in the early spring to ensure the highest rate of success for the tree to flourish.
A Tree Dedication starts at $100 and either the gift giver or recipient will receive a personalized card to commemorate the tree planting. Multiple trees can be dedicated. You can give a gift of trees, memorialize a loved one, celebrate a milestone, plant a tree in remembrance of a pet, or honor someone with a tree simply because they cherish nature.
