Since 1985, they have focused on restoring balanced working forests and wetlands, and improving wildlife habitat. The owners are committed to land conservation, restoration and regenerative organic agriculture.

The Forest Pet Cemetery joins Oregon’s first dedicated natural burial ground for humans, The Forest Conservation Burial Ground, which opened on the ranch in June of 2020. In this serene setting of mature oaks and conifers, beautiful grasses, winding trails, and volcanic rocks, your family can celebrate the life of a lost or deceased pet. Our pets provide companionship and unconditional love; this bond continues after their death. At the Forest Pet Cemetery, the natural burial of companion animals or cremated remains returns these beloved family members to the earth in simplicity and dignity. The paths and benches of the 4-acre cemetery invite visits, contemplation, strolling and picnics.
